Thousands of viewers of the music video PSA of The Rose will have seen the portraits of 6 survivors of violence against women who courageously and generously allowed us to include their picture in the video, knowing that a global audience will see their faces and note their signs that they are survivors and wonder about the stories behind their hard-won smiles. Our fifth story features Kathleen Milliken, a survivor and co-founder of Spa Fundraiser which helps causes and nonprofits focused on women and children to raise funds.

Music is a medium that crosses cultures, and has a large audience that spans the world. In allowing The Pixel Project to show my picture I hope to show that domestic violence can affect many no matter our age, race, religion or economic status.

My image is also to show support for those women fighting for their freedom where-ever in the world they may be, so as they may be able thrive and live a life without fear. That each and every women is worthy of peace. I survived and have made changes to live a life free of violence, and hope that others can find their way, as I have, to smile again and shine a light for those caught in the dark.
