The online fashion jeweler ToppleandBurn has promised to donate 100 percent of profits from its “Refugees Welcome” collection to RukhshanaMedia, which highlights the lives and work of Afghan women.
Freeman said: “We’re so scared for our friends in Afghanistan, for those who have tried to flee to border towns and those whose asylum cases are currently being processed where they remain at risk for deportation. Hopefully we can use our platform to help raise money and awareness for work that protects women’s rights and helps tell their stories.”
Rukhshana Media was created in November 2020 by the 28-year-old journalist Zahra Joya. The stories are written by Afghan women and are focused on the political, social and religious issues that impact their lives. Separately, Joya has mounted an online fundraising campaign for Rukhshana. “Afghan women need a platform to speak for themselves. The Taliban’s return haunts Afghanistan and my Afghan sisters.”
