The similarities & differences between my organizations

I think both of these organizations do a great job helping women who really need help and peace in their lives. I noticed that the two organizations both have the same common goal in mind, which is to eliminate violence in women’s lives and in return create a peaceful environment to live in. They also both want to educate women and their communities so that they can eliminate violence all together in our world.

The differences between the organizations is that the Battered Women's Shelter of Summit County offers an emergency shelter for women and children to reside in for up to three weeks and also a transitional housing unit where they can live in for up to two years. Women for Women International offers a one-year program for women to be educated, taught new skills and a job so that they can return to their communities financially stable and as active citizens.
