When I first moved to San Diego I was introduced to a wonderful organization called Shakti Rising from my friend Paige. Shakti is a social change organization stewarding a new
way of living. Shakti views the current crises in women's health and
safety, the environment, and the economy as absolutely interconnected. For
over a decade, Shakti has created a women- and child- friendly society
by investing in women, whose personal transformation empowers them to
become agents of change among their families, friends, and the entire
community.
Shakti Rising is currently in the process of developing a case statement so potential donors can better understand the organization. I was commissioned to provide imagery for the case statement that represents the organization's core values. I took these photos at the Shakti house where a dedicated group of staff members work to educate community members and change the lives of the women living in the house.

These are so awesome! How beautifully you captured the energy and warmth at Shakti in these photographs Anne! We love them--well done!
