Orange The World: End Violence Against Women Now!

The International Day For The Elimination Of Violence Against Women is marked every year on November 25. The date was chosen by the United Nations in 1999 to honor the Mirabal sisters, all three of whom were brutally murdered in 1960 by order of former Dominican Republic President Rafael Trujillo, for opposing his dictatorship.
