After travelling across the desert, the organisation is bringing their experience to Singapore with an exhibition and event at the Ola Beach Club

Five years since it was first founded, Women On A Mission&nbsp;(WOAM) has come a long way in bringing to light the cause that it believes in dearly. The non-profit organisation will be hosting a desert-themed charity event and photography exhibition at Ola Beach Club, come 8 June. Entitled &lsquo;Sands Of Time&rsquo;, the event will transport guests on a journey through to the Middle East and educate them on the plight of those who experience abuse and violence in various parts of the world. The event is a chance for the organisation to raise awareness and funds for underprivileged women and girls in both Singapore and Iran.

The exhibition will feature images of WOAMs as they&nbsp;journey across Dasht-e-Lut desert&nbsp;in Iran (also known as the hottest place on earth). Through the event and exhibitions, the group will share their life experience as the first all-female team to cross the desert on foot. Guests will be given a chance to purchase limited edition large-scale pictures of the journey through Iran. The sale of the photographs is set to raise funds that will aid two organisations that are supported by WOAM. The first is The Sexual Assault Care Centre (SACC) that is Singapore&rsquo;s&nbsp; only specialised centre for women who have been sexually assaulted while the second is the OMID Foundation in Iran. The organisation, that was visited by the team during their trip, is one that looks to strengthen the social, emotional and economic competencies of disadvantaged young women in Iran.

To complete the theme of the event,&nbsp;guests will be treated to a taste of Persia with a&nbsp;decadent menu with dishes such as Lamb Koobideh, Shah Pasand Chicken, Kash Bademjan and Baklava. Fire dancers will provide the entertainment on the beach while a Persian Bazaar and fashion show will round off the entertainment for those heading down to the venue.

&ldquo;Victims often find it hard to speak up even to friends and family, let alone report to police. They fear blame, disbelief or lengthy and complicated legal procedures,&rdquo; says&nbsp;Corinna Lim, Executive Director of AWARE. She added that It is crucial for their recovery that they have access to the informed and non-judgmental support which a specialised service can provide. We are grateful for WOAM&rsquo;s continued support.&rdquo;
