Meet JLU's Unsung Heroes

While it is easy to celebrate people who are popular by default, it is the unsung heroes who sometimes make it possible to accomplish grassroot work. It is therefore essential to celebrate the women who may not be popular or known but performed some heroic deed or function in the community.

As we round up the women's month celebration, JLU recognizes two volunteers who put their lives at risk to access the population of women in need, These women went above and beyond to support victims of gender-based violence, rape and other psychological issues caused by the ongoing internal war. Through the efforts of these women, JLU can access people in need, in real time. Their Selfless attitude and contributions to the cause, make them worthy to praise.
