Quote: Dear all I would like to greet you all. First please allow me to express my happiness to be honored by you and receive Hellman/Hammett grant. Herby I send to you my worm words of thanks and to all who are contributed in my nomination and giving me the award. The grant will stimulate me in my press activities. I hope all success for my colleagues and I wish them the progress that need in serving people. I will give this prestigious grant for Sudanese women in IDP camps in Darfur and the Asylum seekers, who suffer hotness in summer and cold in winter and cry from all types of violence. The award is (( Hellman/Hammett is The Hellman/Hammett grants are designed for writers who have been victims of political persecution and are in financial need. In addition to offering individuals financial assistance, by highlighting individual cases, they are intended to help focus attention on repression and censorship around the world. The grant program is funded by the estate of American playwright Lillian Hellman. Ms. Hellman’s bequest was prompted by her experiences and those of her companion, the novelist Dashiell Hammett, during the anti-Communist paranoia in the United States after World War II. Hellman and Hammett were both interrogated about their political beliefs and affiliations by Congressional committees. Hellman suffered professionally and had trouble finding work for a number of years. Hammett served time in prison. The executors of Ms. Hellman’s estate asked Human Rights Watch to administer a fund to meet the terms of her will. Over the past 20 years, Ms. Hellman’s bequest has helped more than 600 writers from 91 countries .
