The Raleigh, NC Team Supports InterAct
Dedicated to ending the cycle of domestic and sexual violence in Wake County, North Carolina, InterAct saves lives, rebuilds lives, and secures safer futures for victims and survivors and their families. Each year InterAct serves more than 60,000 individuals and community members – more than 9,500 of whom are direct victims of domestic and sexual violence.
For the past 15 years, on World Bellydance Day (the second Saturday in May), teams of belly dancers around the world dance a belly dance flash mob held annually to raise awareness of domestic abuse. This is a fun event, held for a good cause.
The inaugural Shimmy Mob was held on May 1st, 2011. Sabeya, the founder of Shimmy Mob, intended to hold the event one time only, as a fund raiser for local women's shelters. The response to the event was unanimous: do it again. The movement continues to grow and participants continue to come back every year.
Visit shimmymob.com to see how you can sign up for the next event.
Sadiyah is the leader of the Raleigh NC Team.
