RAINN PROFILES TERESA LO PRESENTS

Picture
FROM RAINN:

This comedy show is about more than just a good time! As a writer and comedian living in California, Teresa Lo knows that laughter is good for the soul—and coming together for a good cause while doing that is even better. 🌟
⠀
Teresa’s company, “Teresa Lo Presents,” produces comedy events online and in-person all while raising money for charitable causes. As a survivor herself, Teresa is passionate about helping change the way the public responds to survivors’ disclosures of sexual violence, “It infuriates me that when victims come forward it is their lives that are dissected, not the perpetrator’s.”
⠀
Teresa set an initial fundraising goal of $1,000 for RAINN, which she accomplished this year. Nearly a dozen comics donate their time and talent at each event, many of whom are professional comedians who’ve toured the country and appeared on TV or radio. The events have been affected by COVID-19, and Teresa has moved her most recent comedy showcase online, but she hopes to return to live events in the future and increase her fundraising goals.
⠀
“In situations where I have been sexually harassed or assaulted, it had been day or night; I had been sober or drinking, I was with people or alone, I was dressed modestly or dressed revealing, and etc. Each situation was vastly different, and the only consistency was that an abuser was in my presence. For RAINN to exist and provide a resource to remind survivors that they are not at fault for what had happened to them, I feel very grateful.”
⠀
Thank you Teresa for changing the conversation around sexual violence! #FundraiserFriday #RAINNRaiser
