together1heart is an organization that works to care for and secure the rights of young women and girls who are victims or at risk of being victims of slavery, and to successfully recover, educate, train, and reintegrate them into society.

“This is an incredible evening for together1heart to announce a partnership with JEZ Magazine,” said Bill Livermore, Executive Director of together1heart. “JEZ is a special publication in that its focus is not just on fashion and beauty, but on how fashion and beauty is deeper than just appearance. To their core, they’re all about social improvement and ways they can work to raise the empowerment of women.”

“This year, together1heart will be focusing on empowering survivors, young victims to surviviorhood, microfinance and microeconomic development, and vocational training. We have a new scholarship program where we believe nine girls will enter university... and study for the next five years” said Livermore.

“This magazine is about culture, style and fashion, but, most importantly, it’s about social change.  We are working with together1heart to help the victims of sex trafficking" said Bohen.

JEZ Magazine hopes to immerse readers into a multicultural world of original fashion and creativity, alongside heartfelt and enlightening interviews. JEZ hopes to encourage a spirit of positivity and philanthropy.
