A NIGHT TO REMEMBER...

Celebrating a decade of lighting the way for over 1000 women and families  

Last Saturday, we marked our 10th birthday by honoring all the leadership and community that  brought us here today. Almost 200 community members,  supporters, and families warmed up our MIT venue overlooking the night skyline of Boston. We enjoyed the wide array of global cuisine from Haiti to the Philippines, we were enchanted and mesmerized by the musical stylings of Sistas in Song and Meiver's middle eastern belly dancing, energized by the our Domestic Worker Rights & Empowerment group's role play, overjoyed by the children's cultural parade, and grounded by Grupo Latina de MataHari's Mayan ceremony to usher in the new year.  

As we received reflections from founder Carol Gomez and new Executive Director Monique Nguyen, listened to acceptance speeches from awardees Olga Piox, Lourdes Patel, Asia Graves, Lydia Edwards, and Greater Boston Legal Services it was a powerful reminder of how much strength, leadership and support there is amongst us. Everyone looked festive and fancy, and we made sure to close out the night with a dance party! Photos can be viewed here.

With deep love and admiration for your commitment to justice, Thank you from MataHari: Eye of the Day.
