Coming together to end violence with V-Day One Billion Rising

Bullet News

Today in Niagara-on-the-Lake, the first ever One Billion Rising  event was held that brought in close to 100 participants to dance as part of a larger global rise to action known as V-Day.

The movement is meant to draw awareness and to help end violence against women and girls.



Participants in Thursday’s event did “striking rising” dance movements led by NIA fitness.  Funds were raised for Gillian’s Place.

This video highlights interviews with participants and features the event in action.
