Men Can Stop Rape

Men Can Stop Rape (MCSR) seeks to mobilize men to use their strength for creating cultures free from violence, especially men’s violence against women. In 1997, the founders of MCSR pioneered a different way of addressing the epidemic of violence against women. Though the majority of violent acts against women are committed by men, most prevention efforts are risk-reduction and self-defense tactics directed at women. The founders wanted to shift the responsibility of deterring harm away from women by promoting healthy, nonviolent masculinity. Their vision offered a plan for prevention that outlines positive, proactive solutions for engaging men as allies and inspiring them to feel motivated to end men’s violence against women. More than a decade later, MCSR continues to successfully mobilize male youth to prevent men’s violence against women; inspire young men to create their own positive definitions of masculinity; develop healthy relationships with others; embrace the concept of personal responsibility; work in partnership with female peers; and do their part to end violence and build safe communities.

First Graduate

First Graduate's mission is to help students become the first in their families to graduate from college, well-prepared to launch careers that are meaningful to them. We seek to level the playing field for students who are immigrants or children of immigrants, who come from challenging economic circumstances, and who are otherwise disadvantaged in the dominant culture. FG provides them with the long-term support that their more well-off peers receive so that they can be competitive high school and college candidates. And, this long-term investment in their education and exposure to career options sets them on a path to build careers, not just jobs. Education is a right, not a privilege, and we work with students from the summer after sixth grade through college graduation (a 12-year journey) to help them attain their degrees and thereby help their families move out of poverty in a single generation.

PARADISE BOUND MINISTRIES

Our goal is simple: 'Whatever it takes' to bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the lost and dying of Guatemala. We live this out in our daily lives, our mission teams, and in every program in which we are privileged to take part. Christ never waited for the needy to come to Him, instead meeting God's children where they were, physically and spiritually. Nothing stood in the way of our Lord; love propelled Him. And as our Lord lives within each of our hearts, at Paradise Bound we strive to achieve the same.
