Supporter of the week; UM Women's Resource Center

Hey, team--

In case you haven't noticed, the incredible 703 volunteers, together with several local businesses and organizations, have been painting Missoula black and green for equality.

One particular University of Montana organization has been setting us up for success by providing space, tables, and support in a big way. Honestly, we would be 100+ signatures less without their help and they deserve so much more than a shout-out;

The amazing individuals of the UM Women's Resource Center do a lot with the University of Montana campus and community, including;

Love Your Body Day
Day of Dialogue
Take Back the Night
16 Days of Activism against Gender Violence
Panty Rock Drag Show
One Billion Rising
The Vagina Monologues
This Night of Mayhem and Creativity
International Women's Day
Women's Wednesday Workshops

Want to know something we love the most about these events? Nearly all of them are educational, support, advocacy, or fundraising for another organization dedicated to all the above. 

Guess what else? They do all of this with 2-3, part-time, student employees. 

Changing the world. No big deal. (Via UM WRC)
