From Victim to Survivor

Listeners will come to understand the work of the charity, Meaningful World. Led by Dr. Ani Kalayjian, the founder and President of this world-wide humanitarian effort, Meaningful World provides compassionate trauma counseling as well as practical support to people in approximately 40 countries who are survivors of war, genocide, political unrest/conflict and abysmal poverty.Dr. Ani Kalayjian will share the story of the amazing work she is doing through her humanitarian missions to Armenia, Haiti and Nigeria to name a few...She and her team of interns and volunteers travel to approximately 40 countries. Recently, Meaningfulworld provided doors to women who were being raped during the night. Literally, doors were installed on their simple homes to keep the predators at bay. MeaningfulWorld also asks for donations to help with feeding and schooling of young children who live in poverty; for sponsoring a year of education; for purchasing sewing machines for girls in orphanages in Haiti; for managing a suicide hotline in Armenia. Through instruction, this not-for-profit teaches people how to work through and overcome the trauma inflicted upon them by authorities. Instead of being victims they transform into survivors.
