The purpose of this site
The sole purpose of this site is to Lobby for Women's Rights, and address women's
issues that impede a women's full potential for personal growth, fulfilment and
empowerment. It is the intention of Fina Bella, to peacefully, but never the less
strongly, lobby injustices. We trust, you will take the time to join with us in these
endeavours. So please, help us to help you.
Site Dedication
“Je Me Souviens/I Remember”
This site is dedicated to the memory of all women, children and men throughout the
world who have lost their lives because of Domestic Violence, or have been injured
and still carry the scars. To those whom are now living in a violent intimate
relationship and because of circumstance, are yet unable to find a way out, we are
thinking of you and hope to give you the inspiration and tools to move out and
safely move on with your life.
We also vividly remember that infamous day on December 6th 1989 when in
less than 20 minutes, 14 young women were brutally killed, and another 10 women
& 4 men were injured in the École Polytechnique Massacre that took place
in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Because of the actions of just one deranged individual,
now we will never know what these intelligent women could have achieved in their
lives and ultimately would have contributed to humanity. You are lost to us, but
not forgotten. Your untimely deaths have brought sadness to many, but you have
not died in vain, because you have helped inspire others to do better and try to find
a way............

Domestic Violence is inexcusable and unacceptable in our society today. Therefore, we support the coalition in it's
efforts to help eliminate this issue through therapy and healing of the individual(s).
The coalition encourages companies, external partners and others to participate in this proactive program. The
group will actively network on behalf of the companies/partners to help promote a positive image in the market
place and to inform the general public of the good work these organizations are doing.
