KUROS

The KUROS mission is to enhance the safety and mobility of women around the world. www.kuros.com

For every Kuros product sold, a can of pepper spray is provided to a woman who would not otherwise have access to it. While pepper spray is legal and sold in many countries, it is not economically attainable to the 1.4 billion people across the globe living in poverty. The idea for Kuros began on a cramped bus ride, traversing the Himalayan foothills from Delhi to Kathmandu. I had just graduated f

rom Texas State and didn't know what I wanted to do with my life; so I packed a backpack and set out alone to find myself. Through a series of serendipitous events, I wound up making my way from Pakistan to Nepal. Being alone and isolated from everything gave me time to reflect on my life up to that point. I realized that I wanted to make a difference somehow; but more than that, I realized that I wanted to be a part of something bigger than myself. Assaults and sexual violence are a growing issue around the globe. In many countries where the laws and justice system are ineffective, women are in desperate need of immediate physical protection. They need an opportunity to take their protection -and their lives - into their own hands. They need an opportunity to break free from relying on the protection of others; they need an opportunity to grow and develop as individuals without living under the constant fear of being unarmed and alone. The peaceful protests, the organized rallies, and the cries for government intervention have gone unanswered for too long. Let us do something right here, right now and help give these women around the world a fighting chance.

December 16, 2012. The world was shocked by what went on to be known as the "2012 Delhi Gang R**e & Murder" of Jyoti Singh. This was something very close to our hearts and one of the first events that lead to the creation of KUROS.
•
Eight years to the day & every woman in the small village where Jyoti Singh was from now has a can of KUROS pepper spray.
•
While self-defensive tools aren't the solution to Gender-Based Violence, our hope at KUROS is that we can stop one more attack from happening, one woman at a time. With one of our Indian partners Red Brigade.

• November 25th. The International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.

• A day that shouldn’t have to exist, but it does. A day that where we look back at all that we have done, and how far we have to go. At we believe that every day should be a day of eliminating violence against women. Our mission has reminded the same since day one, to give to those in need of protection, by providing free pepper spray to at-risk groups around the globe.

• The fight against gender based violence is a team effort. One that we are proud to be a part of, but also one that wouldn’t be anywhere without the great groups on the ground in each country we work in.
