Stellar Global Radio with Sam: Exploring the Stellar Blockchain and Beyond

Show Notes

CEO Mary Kucek and COO Lissette Logan visit the studio to share the announcement of their NFT for Impact project. This is not your run-of-the-mill NFT Collection. No, this is far greater with a larger impact. The Hidden Faces of Domestic Violence collection is symbolic of those who must hide in plain sight for their safety.

What you get 90% Tax Deduction Receipt Beautiful digital Sir Cheesely art and thank you membership letter What we are fighting for:

Nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States.

1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men experience severe intimate partner physical violence, intimate partner contact sexual violence, and/or intimate partner stalking with impacts such as injury, fearfulness, post-traumatic stress disorder, use of victim services, contraction of sexually transmitted diseases, etc.

72% of all murder-suicides involve an intimate partner and 94% of the victims of these murder-suicides are female.

Unintended pregnancy is 3.3x higher for women who experience both sexual and physical abuse. Unfortunately, a growing trend is trying to impregnate those trying to free themselves from their abuser. This way the abuser remains in control.

Over 45% of female rape victims were raped by an intimate partner.

90% of the funds for the NFT sale goes directly to the OvaryIt Foundation, the remaining 10% goes to the amazing Sir Cheesely (artist) and Blue Marble Platform. All proceeds that the Foundation receives goes directly to helping survivors get period products, pregnancy tests, and health services.

OvaryIt is a telehealth platform that was created for women by women. We believe that all women should have access to affordable and high-quality contraceptive options. Through the use of telehealth, we can now bring those options directly to the comfort of our patient's homes. Because each woman is unique and has a distinctive lifestyle and different goals, there can be no one-size-fits-all solution to birth control. Our proprietary technology works not only to ensure patient safety, but to assist physicians in finding patient's their contraceptive match, be it hormonal or non-hormonal. This ensures better patient compliance and contraceptive efficacy.
