About

Chase Bank is giving 1 million dollars to the nonprofit charity that gets the most votes from January 15-22, 2009. In the first round, out of 500,000 nonprofit charities in the US, the Jakara Movement was one of the top 100 that moved on to the next round. Now we have a chance to go even further.

The Jakara Movement is a registered 501c3 nonprofit charity organization committed to social justice and gender equality in immigrant communities. With a mission statement dedicated to gender justice, the issue of women’s health and domestic violence prevention are central to the Jakara Movement’s goals. Taking a holistic approach that concerns itself with both young men and women, the Jakara Movement seeks not only to help those in need now, but create effective solutions for future prevention.

Inspire and be inspired!

Together, this is possible. Together, we are the movement.
