Evanston Entrepreneur To Host Event on Sex Trafficking July 1st Add to My Group(s) Become a Fan (85 fans) My guests today is Evanston entrepreneur, Zoe Lembeck. Welcome to OpEdNews, Zoe. You're hosting the Women to Go - Chicago event on July 1st. What can you tell us about it? We were approached by Phyllis Nutkis, who essentially came into our store and explained that a very interesting project had been designed and executed in Tel Aviv to bring awareness to human trafficking. This project had women in the windows of retail stores with price tags and for sale signs listing age, weight and other details as if they were just another item for sale along with everything else. Outside, there were volunteers who had information and ways to get involved in fighting something that happens not only far away in "developing countries" but all over the United States every day. The project was so successful that it was decided to replicate the event in Chicago and London on July 1st.
As soon as we heard about this, we jumped at the chance to be a part of it. I have studied a bit about human trafficking in college and did some research on the Polaris Project at that time. I also have seen more and more movies focusing on this issue lately. It is often hard to know how to address and combat issues in ways other than giving money to organizations. This event seemed more than just making a big fanfare about the issue and then leaving everyone to say, "that is so horrible, I feel horrible, now I am going to go home feel bad but really just continue to ignore it since I don't know how I can make a difference." So, Willams Next Door will be the site of "Women to Go - Chicago" on Sunday, July 1st, from noon-4pm. Do you worry that your customers will be bothered or turned off by your activism? What's the story with Williams Next Door? How long have you been part of the Evanston scene? Marianne at Williams Next DoorI had no idea that both stores were owned by the same family.
Marianne is your mom? Did you work in the Williams Shoes growing up? And what about your lovely mascot? Yes, Marianne is my mother. We do the boutique side together and my dad handles the shoe store. I started working at the shoe store at a young age during the summers and didn't even realize I enjoyed the independent family-owned atmosphere until I worked in corporate settings for about three years after college and just was not feeling inspired by what I was doing. I guess this just felt second nature to me. I grew up going to shoe shows with my dad seeing how that worked, hanging out in his office and also seeing his creative side used to make the business more interesting and successful. Our dog Sophia has been with us since the store opened. She is definitely the star of the show and totally spoiled so my mom hates to leave her at home. I know that when I met Sophia at your store several years ago, she made an outsized impression on me. Anything you'd like to add before we wrap this up?
I think you pretty much covered a lot about the event and the history of the store. We look forward to seeing how it goes on Sunday. Small businesses will not survive without the support of the community just like grassroots movements need the support of the people and that is how they grow. It can take time and it can be one person at a time. That is how we look at growing our business. Give every client great service and help that woman find something she loves that looks great on her and her friends will want to know where she got it. Movements that bring awareness to social issues are not any different. Get one person to learn about this issue and they will go and tell their friends. Being part of this event feels exciting and relevant as a woman, and as a business owner. Good luck with the event. you're donating 10% of the proceeds this Sunday toward fighting human Yes, that is correct! We wanted to help with the event and try and get as many as people as possible to come and learn about it.
It's been such a pleasure talking with you, Zoe. There's nothing better than an entrepreneur with heart!
