Our mission
No woman should ever live in fear at home, their workplace or on the streets, and no woman should have to endure the trauma caused by sexual violence for a lifetime. We are on a mission to make the prevention of sexual harassment, assault, and domestic violence a top priority in society.
Our history
The foundation is an initiative started by Charlen Larsen, a dedicated entrepreneur who has personally experienced the devastating consequences of rape.
Charlen Larsen’s story is an inspiring journey that has led to a powerful commitment to preventing and stopping violence and rape. After experiencing a traumatic event in her own life, Charlen decided to turn the pain into strength and take the initiative to make a positive change. Read more about Charlen’s Story Here.
Who we are
Never Walk Alone's overall goal is to spread knowledge, increase expertise and contribute to a change in attitudes towards violence and rape against women.
Through the Never Walk Alone foundation, Charlen Larsen wants to expand efforts to combat violence and rape by spreading knowledge, raising awareness and engaging society.
