Women of Worth VoteVote for Barbara Here

The Red Tent Women’s Initiative Founder, Barbara Rhode, is a L’Oreal Women of Worth Award Winner for 2020!

October 19th, 2020. BIG NEWS! Red Tent announces that our founder Barbara Rhode has been honored by L’Oreal with a Women of Worth award! The Women of Worth program recognizes 10 women from all over the country for their tireless commitment to their communities and awards them $10,000 to support their philanthropic work. This is a huge boon for the incarcerated women with whom The Red Tent Women’s Initiative works at the Pinellas County Jail!

Even more exciting—we have the opportunity to win an additional $25,000 with your help! This $25,000 award would allow us to provide a second Red Tent class at the Pinellas County Jail and DOUBLE our impact! The jail has already given us the green light to go ahead with this project, but we need our supporters to help us get there. The Women of Worth honoree with the most votes will be awarded the $25,000 grand prize for her organization, so get ready to click! You can cast your vote once a day EVERY DAY through November 27th by clicking here! You can also bookmark the voting page and set a reminder for yourself to vote each day or simply visit this page and click the VOTE button.

In the meantime, mark your calendars for a television broadcast recognizing all of this year’s L’Oreal Women of Worth honorees! Tune in to NBC on the evening of Wednesday, November 25th, for a program highlighting this year’s Women of Worth award winners, including our founder Barbara Rhode and The Red Tent Women’s Initiative. Celebrity guests including Helen Mirren, Eva Longoria, Elle Fanning, and Viola Davis will also appear in the special.

One simple act on your part can change the lives of incarcerated women, help families stay together, reduce recidivism rates, save tax dollars, and put Pinellas County on the map as the flagship site of a program poised to spread across the country and lift incarcerated women up through trauma informed programs.

I [credit] Red Tent for the love I have for women and the motivation to find my passion and go for it. At one point in my life women were the enemy and now they empower me and are my inspiration and the love I’ve been looking for.

~Melissa, Red Tent Participant

Joyce

I lost everyone I cared about. Red Tent showed me how to live again when everything else I tried didn’t. It gave me resources to start over, and they helped me reclaim my dignity. Receiving all this from women that genuinely want to see women succeed. How can I let them down?

 -Joyce, Red Tent Participant
