Satta Sheriff Quotes

I don’t want to be the next victim of abuse.

I wanted to get involved with their work teaching girls about HIV and AIDS, as well as sexual abuse and just creating awareness in the community.

I am humbled and honored to be one of the four winners.

It came as a surprise, but I am grateful. I hope this award brings more of a spotlight to the issues of women and children in Liberia. I like to think that the Campaign Award doesn’t only belong to me, but to the hundreds of young people I have had the opportunity to work with over the years, including the thousands of children, survivors, and victims of sexual abuse in Liberia. This award is for every young Liberian who’s on the front line fighting for social change, justice, and respect for human rights every day. This award is for my mom, aunties, and all the women in my circle who have experienced sexual or domestic violence. Thank you for inspiring my work and for giving me a reason to help make Liberia a safe place.

You don't have to be like us [in Liberia] to call attention to what's happening in terms of sexual abuse and human rights.

You can help in any way possible by speaking out – by supporting us, and being an ally to this movement that we've started.
