Cora Lee Poole is a passionate advocate for survivors of intimate partner violence and the visionary founder and CEO of Undestructable, a groundbreaking nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering these individuals on their journey toward financial independence. Under Cora's leadership, Undestructable has developed a comprehensive employment program that not only provides survivors with a sustainable income but also equips them with essential life and job skills tailored to their unique needs. Cora’s expertise in textiles and apparel design plays a pivotal role in the organization’s initiatives, as she integrates her skills in sewing, styling, and textile design to create a supportive environment where survivors can express their creativity while gaining practical experience.
One of the key projects currently underway at Undestructable is a collaborative sewing initiative that allows participants to design and produce their own apparel lines. This project not only fosters a sense of community and healing among survivors but also provides them with valuable skills in trend analysis, illustration, and fit, which are crucial for success in the fashion industry. Cora’s commitment to public speaking and advocacy further amplifies the mission of Undestructable, as she engages with various stakeholders to raise awareness about intimate partner violence and the importance of financial independence for survivors. Through her innovative approach and unwavering dedication, Cora Poole is transforming lives and creating a ripple effect of empowerment that extends far beyond the walls of her organization.
