Mission Statement
Emerge Global supports Sri Lankan girls who are survivors of sexual abuse and are courageously testifying in court. Emerge supports these young women in healing, developing their self-sufficiency, and becoming leaders in their own communities
About This Cause
Emerge is a social enterprise that equips Sri Lankan girls who have survived sexual abuse with the business acumen, life skills, and capital needed to lead healthy, self-sufficient lives. Emerge has enabled more than 1500 young women to launch businesses, finance education, and even build homes. In August 2016, Emerge launched a residential empowerment center for young women transitioning out of shelters and into the community. This trauma-informed program, featuring a 4-Stage Professional and Educational Placement Program and a 3-month reintegration curriculum, is the first of its kind in Sri Lanka. Emerge has been selected as Boston's Small Charity of the Year and has been featured on the front page of the Boston Globe's fashion section, in Glamour Magazine, and on Good Morning Sri Lanka. In 2013, Emerge was the featured case study in the book "Do Good Well," a #1 Amazon bestseller with reviews from Muhammad Yunus and Nicholas Kristof. Emerge has been recognized by the American Ambassador and Miss Sri Lanka, and has successfully transitioned to local leadership in Sri Lanka.
