Monday: People Against Rape First Visit



Sunday, 3/12, we arrived at the Church of Sewee Bay and were greeted by the UT alumni that kindly welcomed us into their church. After screaming "Rocky Top" at the top of our lungs we settled into our rooms. Promptly after, we bonded by playing "ice breakers." We then went to bed like the great little bunch that we are.


Monday rolled around, and we woke up at 7 am to head to our first service excursion, People Against Rape (PAR). People Against Rape was founded in 1974 and September 1975, they officially opened their doors as one of the first rape crisis centers in South Carolina.While we were there, we helped create posters and T-shirts for their next awareness event, Take Back the Night.


We had the privilege to work with almost all of their team and learn about the amazing work they do in Charleston for all sexual assault survivors.
