SF Bay Area Vagina Monologues Auditions - Set for January 30 - Event Proceeds to Benefit the Gretta Foundation

V-Day Lafayette is putting on a benefit production of "The Vagina Monologues" as part of the V-Day Community Campaign, a global movement to end violence against women and girls. The “V” stands for valentine, vagina, and vict...ory over violence. For more information about V-Day and its other campaigns to end violence against women and girls worldwide, please visit www.vday.org. The performance dates are March 19 & 20, 2010. Proceeds will benefit The Gretta Foundation.

The Gretta Foundation’s mission is to increase the global “Nurseforce” by providing full nursing scholarships to impoverished persons living in disease-burdened nations. Nursing scholarship recipients, or Gretta Scholars, attend in-country nursing programs. In repayment for the assistance, graduates serve for a predetermined period of time in their country.
