As part of their activism for the 16 Days, the Zonta Club of Saarlouis, District 28, hosted a screening of a popular movie to collect donations to go toward helping women in their community.

The movie was the German drama In The Fade, about a German woman whose family is killed in a terrorist attack perpetrated by neo-Nazis.

Since the movie is popular in the community, over 140 people attended the event. All donations received were given to women refugees.

In Germany, there are over 350 women’s shelters and many offer shelter for refugee women and children.
