about us

From Survivor to Advocate: A Journey of Courage

Founded by Rev. June Major, a survivor who refused to stay silent, Say His Name transforms personal trauma into collective healing. After facing assault and institutional betrayal, Rev. Major spent years fighting for justice -including hunger strikes and legal battles. Today, she leads Cape Town’s most trusted organization for gender-based violence survivors. Our mission is simple: No survivor walks alone.
