Between April 2022 and March
2023, you supported more than
600 programs ending genderbased violence, building economic
stability and opportunities, and
empowering participants with
confidence and leadership skills.
These grassroots programs know
how to meet needs of women,
girls, and gender-diverse people in
our current context of challenge
and change.

Your support also enabled our
grantee partners to collaborate
across regions, strategize, and
advocate for nation-wide systemic
change.
Your steadfast commitment gets us
to the next level – a gender-equal
society that benefits everyone.
