I used my rape ordeal to help other survivors
In 2008 Outlook Inspirations nominee Jes Foord was gang raped by a group of five men in South Africa. She survived and, a year after the attack, started the Jes Foord Foundation. Jes decided she would openly tell her story to women across South Africa and today her organisation is offering counselling and help to thousands of rape survivors.
