Project Amunet

 
 

What if it isn’t Happily ever after?

Project Amunet draws inspiration from the Egyptian goddess, Amunet, known as "The Hidden One," symbolizing individuals dealing with silent abuse—unseen, unheard, falling through the cracks of human services support. As a goddess of wind, she brings life, aligning with our mission to empower survivors.

Silent Abuse Unveiled: Many survivors don't realize silent abuse until reflection post-escape. Project Amunet exposes subtleties like the silent treatment and unspoken threats—tools abusers use to create fear and control.

Coercive Control Demystified: Coercive control tactics, from love-bombing to gaslighting, are unveiled. Amunet's silent winds represent the unseen coercion: isolation, stalking, unreasonable demands, financial control, and intimidation.

Breaking the Silence: Project Amunet breaks the silence, offering a sanctuary for survivors. It provides education, emotional support, and financial literacy, helping survivors "unlearn" abusive behaviors.

Empowering Through Coaching: Our coaching programs, inspired by Amunet's life-bringing winds, empower survivors in decision-making. Personalized plans address financial literacy, self-confidence, goal-setting, coping techniques, and self-sufficiency.

Concierge Support—A Guiding Breeze: Just as Amunet guides the sun, our concierge services accompany survivors—offering research, administrative, legal, and court support. Peer support and mentorship provide the strength of a community breeze.

Advocacy—Raising a Collective Voice: Project Amunet advocates for legal reforms, engages in community outreach, and collaborates with employers. We aim to create a collective voice against non-physical abuse, fostering a safer, informed, and compassionate community.

Amunet's Legacy: Like Amunet, the "Hidden One" guiding the sunrise, Project Amunet aims to guide survivors towards a new dawn. Through a collaborative, client-centered approach, we strive to break the cycle, empower survivors, and build a resilient community—where the winds of change bring healing and empowerment.

Threads of Change

Welcome to our vibrant world of eco-fashion! Join us on a stylish journey where fun meets sustainability. Let's dress boldly, live courageously, and change the world, one eco-friendly outfit at a time!

Welcome to Mary Durham Boutique, where we believe in fashion with a purpose! Let's dive into the wonderful world of eco-friendly fashion and explore why it's not just about looking good; it's about feeling good too.

At MDB, we understand the importance of confidence for women. That's why we offer a wide selection of gently loved fashion pieces that not only boost your confidence but also won't break the bank. By choosing pre-loved items, you're not only saving money but also contributing to a more sustainable fashion industry.

But why exactly should you opt for eco-friendly fashion? Well, let's break it down.

First off, buying secondhand clothing promotes sustainable fashion practices. It's a crucial step in the slow fashion movement, which encourages us to be more mindful of our clothing choices. By giving pre-loved garments a new life, we're reducing the demand for new production and minimizing our environmental footprint.

And let's talk about uniqueness! When you shop secondhand, you're bound to find one-of-a-kind pieces that you won't see anyone else wearing. Vintage finds? Check. Rare gems? Double check. Embrace your individuality and stand out from the crowd with our curated selection of pre-loved treasures.

But it's not just about style; it's about making a positive impact on the planet. By choosing secondhand over fast fashion, you're helping to combat the throwaway culture that's so prevalent in today's society. You're saying no to excessive waste and yes to a more sustainable future.

And the benefits don't stop there. Buying secondhand clothing also supports ethical fashion practices. It's a way to stand in solidarity with garment workers worldwide and advocate for fair wages and safe working conditions. Every purchase you make sends a powerful message to the fashion industry: we demand transparency, accountability, and respect for human rights.

But don't just take our word for it. The secondhand fashion market is booming, with more and more consumers embracing the thrill of the hunt and the joy of sustainable shopping. From affordability to sustainability to exclusivity, there's something for everyone in the world of eco-friendly fashion.

So why wait? Join us at Mary Durham Boutique and embark on a fashion journey that's as bold and courageous as you are. Together, let's make a difference, one stylish outfit at a time.
