Founder’s Message

There are rare moments in life when you discover a purpose so deep that nothing can shake your determination. For me, Cyber Harassment Support (CHS) is not just an organization — it is a mission I am destined to build.

I have faced days of uncertainty, moments when resources felt scarce, and times when people doubted the vision. Yet, I have no regret — because every step I take comes from a place of duty and belief in something greater.

CHS was born out of both personal pain and a desire to transform that pain into hope, awareness, and safety for others. We stand for digital dignity, and our commitment is to ensure that no one feels alone when navigating the challenges of the online world.

To every supporter, volunteer, and partner — know that CHS is not just my project, it is our shared responsibility to create a safer digital future. Even when the journey feels slow, we keep going, because one saved life, one empowered voice, one restored dignity is worth everything.

Together, we are not just fighting harassment — we are building a legacy of respect, resilience, and compassion for generations to come.
