5th Annual Abused Boys and Men Awareness Campaign
Begins Dec 1, 2012 with a Big Benefit Concert in Los Angeles
Male Abuse Awareness Week, Dec 1 - Dec 8
Los Angeles, CA – The P. Luna Foundation is hosting its annual Male Abuse Awareness Week (MAAW), December 1st through 8th. The holiday season should be a time for joy. But in many families it is a particularly stressful time, when the abuse of children increases and the old hurts in grown children come to the surface-thanks to disconnections from their families, or family gatherings that are disappointing and full of secrets and conflicts.
This event raises awareness of all forms of child abuse. Inspired by the cause to fight breast cancer, the goal is to make Male Abuse Awareness Week a major cause campaign with help from the mainstream media and society.
In honor of the campaign’s 5th year, the P. Luna Foundation is holding an all ages MAAW Big Benefit Concert Event in Van Nuys, CA. For young people who have never been to a charity event, this is a chance to dress up with the adults and do something good for their community.
