Join us on a transformative path towards empowerment and justice as we launch the "Reclaim Freedom, Passport Redemption Campaign." Inspired by the resilience of our founder, who confronted the loss and deceptive control over her passport, this campaign symbolizes the enduring spirit of reclaiming personal rights and seeking redemption. Through the simple act of passport redemption, we invite you to stand in solidarity with individuals in their quest for freedom, dignity, and justice. Unite with us as we pave the way for empowerment, advocate for rights, and embark on a collective journey towards a future free from exploitation and control. Let your voice be heard, let your action inspire — together, we reclaim freedom and ignite change.

"My Personal Story", Teresa Dangwa, DWA Founder
September 12, 1997
My Property
This day represents the day I first set foot in USA and the day my passport was taken away from me by the very people who had "hired" me in Zimbabwe a couple of months prior.
We have heard the adage, "Hindsight is 20/20". I didn't know at the time that in the US, not even the government takes your passport, in fact the strongly discourage you sending your passport to the immigration offices as all costs, "only copies" they insist.
Work Permit
My passport was taken away from me at Baltimore Washington International upon my arrival under the guise that they wanted to get my work permit stamped in it.
My Freedom
It was to be almost 2.5 years later that I was to reunite with my passport. I found it by divine intervention and that was the last day I worked for my "handlers".
