35TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE MARTYRDOM OF WOMEN IN EL SALVADOR
For 35 years, SHARE has been accompanying the people of El Salvador while they fight for their rights to
truth, justice, sovereignty, and sustainability as did Ita Ford, Maura Clarke, Dorothy Kazel, and Jean
Donovan. We have helped develop youth and women leaders, pushed for anti-violence legislation,
provided tools for communities to lift themselves out of poverty, and invested in women’s education. And
we won’t stop. Help SHAR keep alive the spirit of these four great martyrs by supporting our work
through a gift to our general fund or Legacy Fund.
SHARE and LCWR are inviting women religious and lay women and men to join us on a special
delegation to El Salvador November 28 to December 5, 2015. One itinerary highlight includes a pilgrimage
to the martyrdom site of the four women to hear first-hand testimonies by people who knew them.
SHARE has spearheaded the initiative to declare this site a national historic monument and is working to
make this effort come to fruition during the pilgrimage. Another highlight includes a visit to the
martyrdom site of Archbishop Romero and the Memorial Wall. You will learn about the root causes of
migration to the US and the current challenges impoverished communities face. You will visit and support
grassroots movements of women, human rights defenders, and mothers of the disappeared. Cost is $1,200
plus airfare. Partial scholarships and group discounts may be available from SHARE. For more
information about our work, please visit SHAR ’s website at http://www.share-elsalvador.org/ or
contact Jose@share-elsalvador.org, tel. 510-848-8487
