As we wrap up 2024, we at CCMW want to thank you for your unwavering support this year. Your kindness has empowered countless women and sparked positive change in our communities. This year has been marked by immense suffering worldwide—from the ongoing genocide in Palestine to the violence in Sudan, Tigray, Congo, Syria, and Lebanon. Our hearts are heavy for all those enduring such hardships. As we enter 2025, we pray for peace, healing, and relief for all those in pain. May the new year bring hope and brighter days ahead.
