Mais says "as violence against women and harmful traditions are still happening in many parts of the world, the need to have projects such as Halo is vital to protect human rights and dignity. There is no more legitimate cause to support and I did not hesitate for a second to volunteer with such a dedicated, and trustworthy team. Nothing would feel more right than raising the awareness of public and giving a second and better chance for survivors to flourish".
