The birth of the Pledge Against Excision. Sini Sanuman founder and volunteer Sadio Sylla (on right, with poster in hand) was working at her health center one day when Susan McLucas came in with the poster. Sadio Sylla was happy to hear that people were doing things and wanted to be part of the movement. She asked what she should do. Susan gave her posters to put up and to give to people to put up other places. A number of her colleagues also wanted to help and asked her how they should. A friend of hers, Saly Koné, who worked at another health center, also liked the idea of stopping FGC and talked to her colleagues, who asked her what they should do. Both Saly and Sadio would call Susan weekly, saying "what should they tell their people?" Susan asked a number of people in the movement what they did with volunteers but no one had any suggestions so Sadio, Saly and Susan arranged to meet and brainstorm. Out of this came the Pledge Against Excision.
