WAKE- Women's Alliance for Knowledge Exchange

I'm honored to share that I've been accepted into WAKE's Tech2Empower Bay Area program! Starting November 7th, I'll be dedicating four weeks to partner with domestic non-profits, helping them solve critical business challenges using technology to propel their growth and impact. This program is an essential part of WAKE's mission: to empower mission-driven social enterprises around the globe. They are on the front lines, leveraging technology and collaboration to defend the rights, safety, and economic security of women, their families, and their communities. In a world where these rights are threatened daily, WAKE's work is more critical than ever. The economic empowerment and rights of women remain at the heart of how I give my money and my time, which is why I’m deeply honored to continue my involvement with such an incredible organization. Whether you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or fired up, determined, and passionate about keeping on - let donating to this fundraiser be an indulgent hit of dopamine for making a tangible difference. Because you are making a difference. With this year having been financially challenging for many of us, I deeply appreciate every dollar donated to this effort. Every dollar is a cherished, impactful gift!

This giving season, support WAKE’s mission to empower Ukrainian refugee women and the organizations helping them rebuild. Your donation will fund Tech2Empower for Ukraine , a program providing mentorship, skills training, and critical resources to women displaced by war. We’re expanding our work to foster regional connections by uniting Ukrainian women living in Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia. With your help, WAKE will bring together women leaders and organizations from across the Baltics to create a stronger, more connected network of support. Through collaboration, we’ll build community and equip women with the tools they need to rebuild their futures and contribute to their resilience. For 10 years, WAKE has empowered women in over 20 countries, transforming challenges into opportunities through connection, leadership, and action. Your support this Giving Tuesday ensures we can deepen our impact in 2025, not only for Ukrainian women, but for leaders in Cambodia, Rwanda, and here at home as well. Join us in creating lasting impact.
