On this blog, we often hear about wonderful organizations and actions that are dedicated to improving the lives of women around the world. Today we get the rare chance to say "thank you" to all the activists and organizers out there for your hard work!

This week in the spirit of Thanksgiving, the United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) released a new video thanking the thousands of people who supported their year-long Say NO to Violence against Women campaign. This project was a global advocacy and awareness raising effort on ending violence against women. It was designed to support UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon's multi-year UNiTE to End Violence against Women campaign.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
