#GRABMAGNUM THIS INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY

Every day we read about famous empowered women who are 

making big things happen in the world today. We are 

inspired by their passion and intelligence. We marvel at their

 achievements. We share their stories.

Yet, every day in our own community there are also many 

other women who are defying all odds to either empower 

themselves to break away from the circumstances of their 

less than perfect lives such as discrimination and violence, or 

those who are motivating them in their efforts to break those 

chains. Many of these women, their stories and struggles 

towards their freedom go unnoticed or unheard to the 

masses, however inspiring to the community they are a part 

of.

Today, in conjunction with International Women’s Day, 

Grab together with Magnum would like to recognise these 

women and the many people, both men and women, who are

 working hard to support them in their journey.

Therefore, both these brands are coming together to raise 

funds to help encourage and recognise the good work the 

Women’s Aid Organisation (WAO) is doing to help 

women rise above their difficult situation.
