Welcome to Arella

"Empowerment begins when you believe in your own strength"

​​

Arella emerges—a name woven with profound meaning and our innate strength, guiding us toward a future filled with hope and healing.

In Hebrew, Ariella (אֲרִיאֵלָה) means “lioness of God,” symbolizing the innate strength and divine grace you will uncover within yourself.

In Latin, Aurelia means “golden,” reflecting the precious worth you carry—a heart of gold that lights your path. As you discover grace within yourself, your heart courageously shines even more brightly for others, illuminating your way when you truly believe.

 

Honoring a Legacy

Ariel (אֲרִיאֵל) in Hebrew symbolizes fierce courage and a protective spirit. It represents a "fierce protector" and embodies the unyielding spirit of resilience—qualities that reflect the legacy of the founder’s cherished father, Kent Kan Sar. His memory profoundly inspires the founder’s mission, and his enduring, steadfast spirit continues to illuminate her path. His unwavering example of love and resilience not only guides the founder but also fuels her deepest aspirations, standing as a testament to the boundless and unconditional love of a father.

 

We derived Arella from the root meanings of these various names, embodying the strength, courage, and grace of your journey toward self-love and healing. Embrace Arella not just as a new beginning, but as a beacon of transformation that reveals the profound light within each of us.

 

To all the fierce protectors—our dedicated board members, program leadership, advisors, and our supportive community—who stand alongside us in this mission: let us unite to forge a path of hope and empowerment. May our collective belief and shared resilience illuminate a future where every heart shines brightly and uplifts others.

Logo

Our logo is more than just a symbol; it is a reflection of the Holy Trinity, represented by three interwoven triangles that embody its powerful meaning. It illuminates the deep well of strength within, much like the Holy Spirit that dwells in each soul, reminding us of the divine support that surrounds us. These intertwined triangles reflect the sacred unity of God, the Universe, and Humanity, each point symbolizing grace, courage, and strength, all woven together to represent the boundless potential that guides us on our journey of healing and transformation.

God: Symbolizes divine grace and the eternal creator of all existence.

The Universe: Is the light of the cosmos and the stars, representing boundless potential and the inner illumination that guides and enriches our journey.

Humanity (You): Embodies innate strength and courage, capturing the personal journey and the profound inner power that connects us all.


In Christian tradition, the Holy Trinity consists of:

God the Father: The eternal creator of the cosmos, the source of all existence.
God the Son (Jesus Christ): The divine incarnate, bestowing grace, salvation, and redemption.
God the Holy Spirit: The indwelling breath of the divine, weaving threads of power and connection throughout the universe.

This design reflects a deeper truth: beyond any specific belief, survivors of sexual assault are connected to a limitless inner strength, courage, and grace. By embracing this truth, they can reclaim their power, seek healing, and move forward with resilience. Our logo, like our namesake, serves as a beacon—guiding survivors to harness their boundless potential, illuminating the path to transformation, renewal, and the limitless possibilities that await.
