Army Veteran Sumeya Gibril shares her powerful story of founding Rise Above, Be Relentless Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting military sexual trauma survivors through healing, mentorship, and empowerment.
• Experienced childhood sexual trauma and domestic violence from ages 6-11 before migrating to America
• Started the foundation after witnessing how military sexual assault victims were often blamed while perpetrators faced no consequences
• Foundation provides civilian lawyers for active duty women, mental health support, and financial assistance for domestic violence survivors
• Core pillars include "Sustenance comes from the creator, not people" and "Embrace the suck" to help survivors take control of their healing
• Foundation focuses on helping "people who want to help themselves" rather than those who remain in victim mentality
• Emphasizes thorough vetting of claims to maintain credibility and avoid false accusations
• Upcoming events include a gala on August 20th at Tower Club in Tysons Corner and a golf tournament on September 29th at Belmont Country Club
• Vision to expand nationally and eventually internationally to support women worldwide
• Advises survivors to channel anger productively, recognize their inherent worth, and take back their power
