Everyone I work with is a high school girl or a young college-age young woman. The statistics on that show are totally alarming. I bet half of everyone I know has had something happen to them, or will someday. I know everyone thinks it won't happen to them.... But it does.

Please forward this to all corporate officers and board members:
As a mother of two young girls, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support of such a worthy endeavor.
As a citizen of the United States of America and the great State of Oregon, your corporate sponsorship is a beacon and model to all other corporations that giving of corporate funds to the community is not only a duty of the corporate sector, but truly the backbone of what makes America such a great and noble country.
Directly due to your actions, not one, but many and even, perhaps, thousands of girls will be empowered by, "Just yell Fire!" and their lives spared from pain and even death.
As leaders of this corporation, you should be proud of your company, just as a parent is proud of a child.
Thank you for fulfilling the dreams of these young women to make a difference and save people all over the world from these horrible crimes.
You are my role model
I just happened to stumble across your website when I was on google, and the words "Just Yell Fire" caught my attention. Once I was on your website and saw what it was about...well words can't really describe how I felt! I live in the state of Georgia and I'm in 7th grade, but you'd be surprised to know about alot of the stuff that's happened at my school. Well one day I went to school only to find out that my best friend was almost raped that past weekend. And I was so scared for her because I myself have been in that situation before. And after seeing this...I have alot of respect for you (this coming from a 13 year old)
And I'm proud of you for going out and actually doing your best to make a difference in the world! Because all over the world girls are constantly being put into a position where their first natural instinct is to panic, and they don't know what to do. All they know is that they are being assaulted but with your help and inspirational video women can know that they can go out and not be scared because they automatically know now what to do if placed in a frightening situation like the one's in your video. Now thanks to you women can fight back without being scared that a man twice their size can overpower them. Because finally women have a system that will work everytime in any assault situation. And I would like to personally thank you for starting this non-profit organization "Just Yell Fire" for women in need all over the world.
Also I'd like to congradulate you for your awards. And it's funny, because most kids have a role model that's a celebrity, but I can honestly say that Dallas, you are my role model and I wish that I was able to make as big a difference as you! Oh and by the way, I'm definitely going to be telling just about everyone I know about "Just Yell Fire"
I just finished watching "Just Yell Fire". It was a very powerful statement for the rights of young women to be safe! Thank you.

I train and teach Soo Bahk Do in the Mount Vernon Washington area. While looking at one of our regional web sites, www.camaskarate.com there was an article on Just Yell Fire and how it was created.
I'd personally like to thank you and all involved for providing awareness to not only women but people of all ages. Awareness is an important key.
I've recently been asked to provide self defense training to my fellow co workers (nurses) and their children.
I look forward to sharing my information and requesting all attendees watch your video-then pay it forward to family, friends and loved ones. It's this type of crucial information that should be required viewing (and learning) in all schools.
What a gift it would be to each and every recipient!
Again, thank you to all for creating such an important film. May it travel around the world and touch the lives of millions!
