The V TO THE TENTH Leadership Fund ?is giving $400,000 to 45 women and three
organizations from New Orleans and the Gulf South for their dedication,
sacrifice and hard work. V TO THE TENTH, a two-day celebration of the 10th
anniversary of The Vagina Monologues, was held in April and raised more than
$750,000. Part of the money was dedicated to scholarships, replanting marsh
grass and arranging for 1,200 women displaced by the levee failures to
attend the April event.
