Wedu supports women leaders in Asia through mentorship, leadership development, and financial support. 

**Wedu** is a not-for-profit social enterprise on a mission to nurture the next generation of women leaders in Asia. Founded in 2012, Wedu was born out of a desire to address the vast gender leadership gap that persists globally—and is especially stark in Asia, where it is projected to take 189 years to reach full gender parity, compared to the global average of 131 years. Wedu envisions "a world where half of all leaders are women," and works toward this by removing barriers to leadership and enabling women to rise through access to community, capital, and capability.

**HISTORY AND MISSION**

Wedu began with a fundamental insight: that the barriers to women’s leadership are not solely external, but deeply internalized, often rooted in cultural, familial, and social expectations. Over more than a decade, Wedu has developed a community-centered model that supports women at various stages of their leadership journeys—whether they are just discovering their potential or advancing complex career or civic goals.

Wedu’s consolidated mission is to empower women leaders through:

- **Community:** A lifelong supportive network of mentors, allies, and peers.
- **Capital:** Innovative financing to access education and development.
- **Capability:** Programs that shift mindsets and transform limiting beliefs.

These pillars are grounded in Wedu’s Theory of Change, which outlines transformative pathways at the individual, collective, and systemic levels. Wedu believes that change starts with strengthening a woman’s sense of agency and identity, expands through communities of solidarity and mentorship, and ultimately transforms society through gender equity allies and inclusive leadership structures.

**PROGRAMMES**

Wedu’s approach is both high-touch and scalable, combining personalized mentorship with technology-enabled leadership learning.

**Global Mentorship Programme**

This flagship program has supported over 1,500 women leaders (Rising Stars) with guidance from more than 1,700 mentors across the world. These mentorships focus on self-awareness, goal setting, network expansion, and resilience. Since inception, Wedu has facilitated over 90,000 hours of mentorship and more than 2,400 mentorship matches. As of 2024, 76% of participants say they attribute the successes on their leadership journey to the support they received from Wedu​.

**Introduction to Leadership (ITL) Course**

Wedu’s self-paced ITL course strengthens self-awareness, goal clarity, and agency—particularly among women who face structural and cultural barriers to leadership. Informed by over a decade of programming and global research, the course is contextualized for Asian women and integrates self-reflection, identity formation, and leadership development. By 2025, Wedu aims to reach 25,000 women with multilingual and multimodal versions of this course, scaling up to one million women by 2030 in partnership with The Agency Fund​.

**Income Sharing Agreement (ISA) Programme**

Through its innovative Income Sharing Agreement (ISA) model, Wedu enables women to finance their university education and leadership development without upfront costs. This model aligns repayment with income, ensuring financial flexibility and minimizing risk for the individual. As of 2024, Wedu brought this ISA program fully in-house, increasing operational efficiency and sustainability​

**Women’s Leadership Academy (WLA)**

Wedu has been a key partner in regional programs like the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI) Women’s Leadership Academy. Through mentorship and community-building, this initiative fosters strategic leadership among emerging changemakers across ASEAN.

**IMPACT AND REACH**

Wedu’s programs have demonstrated measurable impact:

- 75% of mentees report an increased sense of self-belief and confidence in expanding their leadership networks.
- Participants have achieved key milestones including career promotions, launching social ventures, and civic engagement.
- Wedu’s community spans over 30 countries, with a growing digital ecosystem and partnerships across the education, tech, and development sectors.
- Wedu aligns its impact with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being), SDG 4 (Quality Education), and SDG 5 (Gender Equality), where the highest concentration of community engagement and initiatives are represented.

**ORGANIZATIONAL GROWTH AND FUTURE PLANS**

In 2022, Wedu commissioned Bain & Company to conduct a Geographic Expansion Study, assessing market attractiveness and Wedu’s ability to succeed across prospective countries. Based on this analysis, priority countries for expansion—where both factors ranked high—include India, Bangladesh, the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand. Cambodia, Myanmar, and Nepal were identified for selective expansion. Wedu is now acting on these recommendations by doubling down on our focus in South and Southeast Asia.

In response to major social, political, and economic shifts across South and Southeast Asia, Wedu has identified three concurrent crises affecting women leaders in the region: the Climate Crisis, the Care Economy, and persistent barriers to Economic Empowerment. To ensure our programmes remain relevant and responsive, our External Strategic Priorities for 2025–2027 are focused on directly addressing these challenges. By 2027, we aim to enable 1,000 women leaders to drive climate-resilient solutions; shift how society and women leaders view unpaid care work, recognizing it as a critical factor in advancing women’s leadership; and enhance the economic empowerment of 1,000 women leaders, particularly those leading Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), through capacity-building, education financing, strategic partnerships, and community support.

Wedu will continue to challenge both structural exclusions and internalized limitations faced by women. By integrating self-reflective leadership learning with long-term community and capital support, Wedu aims not just to close the gender gap—but to redefine leadership itself.

Wedu (Thailand) Foundation

Founded in 1995, the AWC Scholarship Program provides rural, low income Thai girls with scholarships to complete high school.

The AWC Scholarship Program awards scholarships annually to female high school students in 28 schools across 21 provinces in central and northern Thailand. In the 2025-26 school year, our donors sponsored 300 students.

Each $200 USD scholarship allows a student to pay the extra, mandatory costs of high school that are not covered by the government (books, uniforms, supplies, meals and transportation). These costs can be prohibitive to low income families and often girls have to leave school because their families cannot pay them.

Eligibility criteria for young women in grades 10-12 (M4-M6) are good academic performance (> 2.5GPA), a low family income, good behavior and a commitment to education while building a sustainable community. ​

​We organize two school/home visit trips each year which gives us the opportunity to meet about 40 of our sponsored students. Watch our [school visit video](https:/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zOVhiBNZRM&t=1s) to share in the highlights of our trip to Nakhon Phanom.

Our students consistently greet us with enthusiasm, appreciation and, best of all, huge smiles. In each school, we meet with staff and students, host book and English clubs and have fun interacting with our students. On our last visit, the girls did their best to teach us Thai dancing.

The American Women's Club of Thailand (AWC) is a nonpolitical, volunteer, not-for-profit association organized in 1956. Our mission is to promote friendship among all women and to serve the people of Thailand through charitable, social, and cultural activities.

The Transformative Justice Center provides services to the incarcerated and formerly incarcerated. 

Our mission is to advocate for transformative justice, emphasizing empathy and understanding as we work with those who have been incarcerated. We aim to break down the barriers of social stigma, creating a platform for personal growth and change. At the Transformative Justice Center, and our flagship prison program - Empathy in Action, we see past the person’s history and focus on their potential. By providing crucial support and resources, we aspire to drastically reduce recidivism and help individuals reclaim their lives. At its core, transformative justice works to transform relationships, institutions and systems historically founded in oppression, marginalization, and violence into ones grounded in restoration, respect, and responsibility.

We believe that everyone deserves a chance to be seen, heard, and understood regardless of background, race, class, socio-economic status, political or/and religious views. We know that most if not all people in prison come from painful, traumatic backgrounds, from victims to victimizers. We work to transform prison spaces into places focused on higher education, healing, whole body wellness, accountability and respect. We see that within every human being there exists the possibility to grow, to change, and to transform with the right tools and interventions. We are committed to building bridges being the public and our incarcerated community in order to learn, understand and humanize those most impacted by familial and societal harms.

At the core of our work, we believe in redemption, and that everyone deserves an opportunity to transform their lives. Our center is built on empathy and understanding, providing crucial resources and support to individuals who are navigating their way back to society after incarceration. We appreciate any form of support, small or large, to assist us on this journey towards healing, change, and rebuilding lives.

Ranked Choice Voting Maryland is a non-partisan coalition seeking to build a more effective, representative democracy.

**Why is Ranked Choice Voting Great for Maryland?**

In ranked choice voting elections, the candidate who reflects the views of the widest number of voters wins. Even in crowded fields, similar candidates can compete without splitting votes. Whether Republican, Democrat, independent or third-party, voters never have to worry about the “spoiler effect.”

We rank things all the time and express our preferences when we are shopping, going out to eat, etc. **Elections do not reflect how we make choices everyday.** 

**Maryland is Ready!**

Maryland is poised to expand better elections at the local, county, and state level. Our voting system is ready for ranked choice voting. Marylanders across the state are eager for more choice and a stronger voice in electing leaders.

**RCV is a WIN-WIN for voters and candidates!**

- **Eliminate Spoiler Effect** - Candidates do not need to worry that their campaign will help another candidate win by splitting the vote or being asked to “wait their turn."
- **Fully Express Your Vote** - When you have multiple candidates that you support, you can better express your intentions and preferences.
- **End Non-Majority Winners** - Ranked choice voting respects the will of the people and helps to elect the candidate preferred by a winning margin of voters.
- **More Civil Campaigning** - Candidates run competitive, yet civil campaigns to appeal to a broader base of voters.

Working for a world where all girls can learn and lead without fear.

With more than 130 million girls out of school today, here’s how we’re breaking down barriers that hold girls back.

Through our Education Champion Network, we invest in local educators and advocates — the people who best understand girls in their communities — in regions where the most girls are missing out on secondary school.

We advocate — at local, national and international levels — for resources and policy changes needed to give all girls a secondary education. The girls we serve have high goals for themselves — and we have high expectations for leaders who can help them.

We believe girls should speak for themselves and tell leaders what they need to learn and achieve their potential. We amplify girls’ voices and share their stories through Assembly, our digital publication and newsletter.

The Alliance for Diplomacy and Justice represents a vision for centering human rights in United States foreign policy. 

The Alliance for Diplomacy and Justice (a 501c3 organization) represents a vision for reimagining United States foreign policy that prioritizes human rights. Advancing human rights in U.S. foreign policy is good for the world and good for Americans.

In January 2025, eight former Ambassadors, Special Representatives, and Special Envoys with human rights portfolios at the State Department founded The Alliance for Diplomacy and Justice. Each co-founder and principal has long been a leader in their areas of expertise, including: racial justice, workers’ rights, atrocities prevention and response, support for trafficking victims, youth empowerment, women’s rights, Afghanistan, and LGBTQI+ rights. We use our insider expertise to decipher foreign policy developments in the U.S. for civil society, academia, governments, and multilateral institutions in the U.S. and around the world and inspire others to fill the void the U.S. left behind. 

The U.S. has never been perfect, but our national ideals are noble and our foreign policy has traditionally incorporated bipartisan commitments to human rights, democracy, and global justice. Today, the U.S. is walking away from those long-standing commitments. The Alliance is bridging the gap between domestic and foreign policy by demonstrating how the dismantling of the policies, funding, and infrastructure of U.S. human rights investments globally impact the daily lives of all Americans. Supporting human rights in U.S. foreign policy translates into stronger national security, a more robust economy, a healthier country, and a country that is not merely feared but respected and valued globally.  

The Alliance fills a crucial gap by serving as:

- Human rights experts in mainstream foreign policy spaces, 
- Foreign policy experts in domestic spaces, 
- Former government officials in social justice spaces, 
- Responsive Americans in international contexts, and 
- Fierce advocates everywhere.

Thank you in advance for considering a donation. With your support, we can chart a new path forward for human rights and global justice in U.S. foreign policy, benefiting people around the world and Americans at home. 

The Co-founders and Principals of the Alliance are listed below by their former titles:

- Rina Amiri, Special Envoy for Afghan Women, Girls and Human Rights
- Desirée Cormier Smith, Special Representative for Racial Equity and Justice (Co-President)
- Cindy Dyer, Ambassador to Monitor and Combat Human Trafficking
- Kelly Fay Rodriguez, Special Representative for International Labor Affairs
- Abby Finkenauer, former Special Envoy for Global Youth and former member of Congress
- Geeta Rao Gupta, Ambassador for Global Women’s Issues 
- Jessica Stern, Special Envoy for the Advancement of LGBTQI+ Human Rights (Co-President)
- Beth Van Schaack, Ambassador for Global Criminal Justice

The Representation Project is the leading gender watchdog organization.

**We are here to change the world.**

No matter who you are or where you live, intersectional gender stereotypes are hurting you and those you love. Through film, education, and activism, The Representation Project awakens consciousness, spotlights the cost of these stereotypes, and invites everyone to build a more equitable future. 

Millions of people have been touched by our storytelling and reached by our activism and resources. Jennifer Siebel Newsom founded The Representation Project in 2011 with her groundbreaking film *Miss Representation*, igniting a national conversation about sexism in the media. *The Mask You Live In*, Jennifer’s second documentary, showcased how harmful American masculinity can be for boys and young men. Her latest films-- *Great American Lie* (2019) and *Fair Play* (2022), tackled inequality in the American Dream and in the division of care and domestic work in households, respectively.  

These documentaries on limiting gender narratives have been viewed nearly 30 million times, with our film curricula changing the lives of over 2 million students. Siebel Newsom’s prescience has born true: that storytelling opens hearts and minds like nothing else, shifting attitudes and behaviors. This is culture transformation at its best and creates a more equitable world where everyone can reach their full potential.

**Why Its Urgent**

Gender stereotypes are a public health crisis. Two-thirds of young women have disordered eating. One-in-three girls have seriously considered suicide, up significantly from a decade ago. Boys who hold traditional ideas about masculinity are significantly more likely to bully and harass others, and to suffer from depression and suicidal ideation.

The dangers to our youth link back to harmful messages. For girls, these stereotypes form the root cause of body hatred and shame, eating disorders, depression, low self-esteem and low leadership ambition. For boys, they are the primary driver of depression, dangerous risk-taking activities, substance abuse, suicide and violence. By getting in front of the message, we can change the outcome.

**How We Do It**

- We raise awareness through films— viewed over 30 million times worldwide.
- We educate students through our curricula, which has reached over 2.4 million students.
- We amplify the impact of our film and educational materials through hashtag campaigns (e.g., #AskHerMore, #NotBuyingIt, #EndRape, #RespectHerGame) that have reached 588 million people.

Together, we are bending the long arc of history toward intersectional gender justice. This is a person-by-person and community movement.

Please join us. We need you.

AkiraChix provides young women in Africa, with technology skills to compete economically and bridge the gender gap in tech.

Through a 360 approach, the codeHive program that not only focuses on building technical skills but also on increasing young women’s agency, The program offers young women who did not have access to a well-rounded education the opportunity to develop the most sought-after tech skills, equipping them with the necessary tools to compete equally in the tech industry. 

We believe that the only ticket to decent work and economic prosperity is giving young women access to meaningful and well-paying jobs. With increased agency and that extra earning power, the young women are able to recognize their full potential in economic spaces and break gender norms; codeHive graduates in senior positions are playing a key role in creating more inclusive work spaces.

The ICJ is a unique legal NGO that shapes international laws to protect human rights, and makes sure these laws are used.

Over the past 70 years, our work has benefited the lives of millions of people - including yours. 

We have been responsible for building and strengthened the legal processes need to protect human rights globally. But as growing authoritarianism threatens decades of progress, we are asking **you** to help ensure that this continues, and that judges and lawyers can stand up to political pressure and protect the rights of ordinary people. 

With your support, cases that decide whether a journalist goes to prison, whether survivors of abuse are heard, or whether a child faces persecution can be fought - and won. Your donation translates into **real freedoms restored, fair trials secured, and systemic reforms that protect millions long after your gift is given**.

Without your support, the rule of law will erode more quickly and more quietly. Judges silenced, activists prosecuted, and communities left without justice are not just stories — they are the frontline of whether or not the law can still protect us. If the ICJ cannot step in, those who abuse the law to silence dissent or enrich themselves will succeed. If we lose ground on the decades of progress made since the Second World War, there will be lasting consequences for those who have nowhere else to turn.

Around the world, democratic institutions are under unprecedented attack. Supporting the ICJ now means ensuring independent courts and legal systems survive the current wave of repression, so that the law will protect, rather than persecute. The urgency is not abstract — the next few years will determine whether rights roll back for decades to come.

The ICJ is trusted by governments, bar associations, leading foundations, UN agencies,  and civil society groups worldwide — but perhaps most tellingly, by **judges, lawyers and human rights defenders themselves**. When their safety is at risk, they turn to the ICJ for expertise and solidarity. 

We work shoulder to shoulder with national partners in over 30 countries, supporting the drafting and adoption of landmark human rights treaties and conventions, submitting legal interventions in domestic and international courts, providing legal education and training on human rights law, and building networks of lawyers and judges committed to upholding the rule of law.

By donating, you will be joining a global community of institutions and individuals who support the ICJ's critical work.

The ICJ's Commissioners are serving or former senior judges, lawyers, and legal academics from all legal traditions, selected for their experience, knowledge and fundamental commitment to human rights. Their pro bono support gives the ICJ's legal teams unique credibility and influence with governments, courts, and international organizations. We speak with the unbaised authority of legal scholars, not just as an advocacy group.

Through research and education, Vote Mama Foundation is working to make it easier for moms to run for and serve in elected office.

Vote Mama Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization, is building the political power of moms by identifying and researching solutions to the structural barriers moms face running for and serving in elected office.

Vote Mama Foundation research shows that moms with minor children make up less than 8% of state legislators and less than 7% of congressional representatives. Moms face extraordinary structural and cultural barriers to elected office, like the inability to afford childcare while campaigning without a salary or while commuting long distances to the capitol.

Our structural solutions seek to change the face of power in this country by tearing down those barriers - not for one electoral cycle, but for generations to come. Join us today!

History of DPNA



The Development for People and Nature Association (DPNA) was founded in 2003 by a passionate group of activists who saw the pressing need for a structured approach to sustainable development in Lebanon. Initially starting with a small, dedicated team, DPNA set out to tackle the challenges faced by marginalized communities, particularly those in rural and underdeveloped areas. From these modest beginnings, DPNA has grown into a prominent non-governmental organization (NGO) with a significant impact on both social and environmental issues locally and regionally.

Every child deserves access to education. It is a basic human right. Yet in Sub-Saharan Africa, over one fifth of primary school aged children are not in school. That’s just not right. 

So They Can is an international NGO on a mission to change this. They work with vulnerable communities and their governments in Kenya and Tanzania to educate and empower children, so they can break the poverty cycle, realise their own potential and meet their own needs. 

Over a 7-10 year development cycle, So They Can works closely with a community to understand their needs and implement projects that will best support them. Throughout the cycle, they develop relationships and ensure transfer of knowledge and management skills to these communities to ensure sustainability of the programs. This enables them to eventually shift to a governance role so we can expand our focus and core resources to help other vulnerable communities.

Since being founded in 2008, the DFAT accredited NGO has partnered with 42 schools and helped deliver quality education to over 24,000 students.

The Jeneba Project transforms the lives of girls in Sierra Leone via a high quality foundational and civics education.

A Next Jen revolution.

The Sengbe Pieh senior secondary excellence academy is dedicated to granting dozens of promising young women access to a quality high school education and to paving a way for them to forge a bright future. Through the academy, students not only gain strong academic foundations but also learn to establish their voice, gain awareness of their rights, take pride in and ownership of their minds and bodies, and gain the confidence to march forward and dictate their own successes. 

We aim to transform the face of education for girls in Sierra Leone with a mission to foster intellectual growth, develop leadership and catalyze social impact across communities.

We focus on four pillars of success:

1. Education quality: Our small class cohorts of 24 girls are taught by six subject matter teachers, which enables the personalized attention needed to achieve strong academic foundations. 

2. Civic and Female Empowerment: On “Special Fridays”, we teach topics key to civic education with a special focus on female empowerment.

3. Critical Thinking: By moving from corporal punishment to PBIS (Positive behavioral interventions and support) techniques, we create an environment where girls feel comfortable posing questions rather than avoiding wrong answers.

4. International exposure: We host international guest lecturers onsite. In the past, these partners have expanded computer literacy skills; taught girls about their reproductive systems; and conducted art therapy to foster self-esteem and resolve conflicts.

We are ready for a revolution! Join us in creating this next generation of women who are adamant about making the future a better one for themselves, their families and communities.

Black Sisters in STEM (Black SiS) helps Black Gen Z women breaking into STEM careers share, learn, and get hired.

Vision: Reinventing the path for Black women in early career stages pursuing STEM-based careers.

Black women constitute only 2 percent of STEM jobs. A statistic that has been stagnant since 2018. Black Women represent the largest unserved market and largest disruptive force in business. Black women struggle at every stage of the STEM pipeline. It’s not due to lack of desire, or capacity, it’s to lack of support.

Black Sisters in STEM (Black SiS) is on a mission to unleash the global brilliance of Gen Z Black Women by reinventing their journey towards STEM based careers. We are building and upskilling the largest talent marketplace of Black Gen Z women to systematically address the racial wealth gap and create generational socio-economic growth. In short, we help Black Gen Z women breaking into STEM careers share, learn, and get hired.

We have built an empire of ~8k Black women from 33 countries and 200+ schools. Growing membership at 75% YoY. Most importantly, earning our fellows $4M+ in compensation packages. From Lagos, Nigeria to Atlanta, GA we are building a career community the world has never seen.

Nyanam is a restorative justice organization preparing widows to lead positive community transformation.

We are a restorative justice organization, preparing widows to be leaders of positive social transformation in their communities through integrated programs in leadership, health, livelihoods and justice. Our work alleviates widowhood poverty, mitigates the impact of HIV/AIDS, and gives widows the tools to tackle oppressive cultural, economic, and social practices that undermine widows’ dignity and limit their agency. 

Vision 
Africa where widows thrive 

Past and current activities 
Our unit of operation is the leadership circles, which are self-led widow-to-widow support groups that meet on a weekly basis. We also have youth mentorship groups that organize and meet weekly during school holidays. In the leadership circles, widows offer each other spiritual, emotional, and economic support, replacing isolation and loneliness with communities of friendship. These circles consolidate their collective voice to guide the design and implementation of Nyanam’s work. As an organization, we have five main program areas that guide how we engage with Nyanam widows and their children. We use capacity strengthening as the core approach in implementing our programs. Our holistic interventions in leadership, livelihoods, health, justice, and youth education are delivered through our unique curriculum called Voice of Change, a Nyanam’s unique and widow centric training curriculum tailored to respond to the needs and concerns of widows, and uses storytelling, deep listening, and social action as approaches for community transformation. 

Leadership: Widowhood thrusts women into household leadership in patriarchal culture where male headship is valued and expected. We affirm the leadership of widows and harness their potential for community transformation. From the leadership circles, we have trained 640 widows in our various capacities who have in turned trained 780 widows in the same knowledge and skills in their groups. Further, leadership circles conduct Bible studies for spiritual development, personal sharing for emotional support, and table banking for economic development. 

Livelihoods: Our livelihood program has two main components; economic empowerment and sustainable agriculture. We train Nyanam widows in sustainable agriculture, financial literacy, table banking and micro- business skills. We offer them seed funding for their group table banking and businesses, we provide them with vegetable seeds for planting, and new gardening resources (multistorey gardens). 

Health: Nyanam widows' health and well-being is our primary focus. In this program we train our widows in trauma healing, preventative health and counselling. Through our professional and trained counselors, we provide widows with individual and group counseling sessions which support and addresses each widows’ nuanced situation and unique set of challenges, as well as mental health workshops with specific themes at the request of the widows. Further, we have a team of trained community health volunteers that provide monthly health talk sessions in the different leadership circles as well as home visits and health referrals where needed. 

Justice: Access to, ownership and control of land is both a human right and an economic justice for widows. In this program, we raise awareness on widowhood issues and take action to address injustices related to land, housing and widows’ rights. We ensure this through community leaders education and training, conducting conflict resolution sessions among Nyanam widows and their relatives, provide direct legal support to widows who are pursuing their land and property inheritance and succession, provide housing support  by building Nyanam widows dignified houses in partnership with other stakeholders and undertake policy advocacy with different government agencies and policy makers on widows human rights. 

Youth Education: Widows’ children are particularly a population in need of support, as poverty limits the future of both the widows and their families. Guided by our 3-year youth education strategy, we provide capacity training to Nyanam widows children in comprehensive health education, technology and robotics and environmental justice. The training is multiplied in the youth mentorship groups by a group of trained Nyanam youth mentors supported by trained widow matrons. In addition, we provide need based secondary school education sponsorship to widows children to improves student access to secondary education, but also builds students’ communication skills and goal setting through the application and mentorship process. 

In the future we are planning to serve up to 10,000 widows in our region and establish a widow-led cooperative business for financial security and additional income for Nyanam widows improving their financial status and muscles. Further, we seek to expand the work to other communities through training of different partners and stakeholders in our intervention the Voice of Change as a key driver for positive community transformation in the communities of widows.

GirlTREK is one million Black women walking to heal our bodies, inspire our daughters and reclaim our neighborhoods. 


GirlTREK began with a simple but life-saving promise between two friends: to walk their way to better health and inspire others to do the same; and it is now a grassroots movement powered by everyday women. We are the women we serve. Now, GirlTrek is mobilizing this constituency for its boldest mission yet: a Care Crusade to extend Black women’s life expectancy by 10 years in a decade. These bold campaigns—scaling to 5 million members, establishing community wellness hubs “Care Villages”, training a Blue Brigade of health responders, and advancing policies to dismantle systemic barriers—will build lasting systems of care and inspire future generations.

“Women are the first victims of war, but only they hold the unique key to peace.” – Julienne Lusenge 
 
 The Fund for Congolese Women (FFC)   supports women's grassroots organizations through financial and technical assistance.  FFC is unique - the only women-led grant-giving NGO in the entire DRC. We provide grants to local women-led organizations that are often in the most remote, difficult to reach areas.   Why? We are unshakable believers in local solutions to local issues.  We know that the brave women and girls working at the grassroots level have the solutions. We know that when women become agents of change, they benefit, their families benefit, their communities benefit. Since its inception in 2007, FFC has funded more than 386 projects throughout the Democratic Republic of Congo. We support projects focusing on eliminating sexual violence against women, delivering empowerment programs for women and girls, educating women about HIV/AIDS and reproductive health, and advocating for environmental justice and access to resources and land for women.  Generous individuals like you make our work possible.  Thank you!
