October was Domestic Violence Prevention month, and several of the male celebrity contributors to the book Saving Our Daughters: From A Man’s Point of View, including T.I. and Gary Sturgis, participated in a national media campaign that provided hope to abuse survivors, while challenging men to seek help. Inspired by the leadership and success of the men associated with the book, a few female celebrities will now pick up the torch and continue to champion the messages conveyed in Saving Our Daughters throughout November, which marks the official launch of the book.
Female celebrity participants lending a hand to encourage and inspire young women and single mothers this month will include Denise Vasi, from the popular soap opera “All My Children,” entrepreneur, Lisa Wu Hartwell, of the Bravo TV show “Real Housewives of Atlanta,” Keshia Knight Pulliam of Tyler Perry’s House of Pain, Treynce, a Top-5 finalist from the second season of “American Idol” and poet Georgia Me, who was featured in Russell Simmons’ Def Poetry Jam. While these women are all different, they share a passion for empowering others through open and honest dialogue about their positive and negative life experiences.
