Hi guys! SOUFRA is premiering 1st & 2nd Sept, and they're looking for volunteer ambassadors.
ABOUT SOUFRA
The woman featured here on the poster is Mariam, who has been in a refugee camp since birth. That refugee camp's about 70 years old! Mariam pulled together a team to start their own small kitchen, but it wasn't long till they found out that their status as refugees denied them of working rights. Slowly but surely, they overcame various political odds, realising their worth, helping their community, inspiring & giving hope to many others.π SOUFRA's about celebrating the human spirit of resilience and the power of social enterprise in the community. There will be also a social enterprise market on 1 Sept and that's open to public!
Check out the trailer here:
