Trafficking

Women of all ages, in more than 7,000 congregational and special units in the United States and the Caribbean, carry out the mission of Women of the ELCA: mobilizing women to act boldly on their faith in Jesus Christ.

The Fund for Women in Asia is determined to help bring about social change in how women and girls are valued in their communities.

We will do that by strengthening local women's groups, so they can more effectively speak for themselves. We aim to partner with local groups, to help leverage their resources effectively, bringing not only financial resources but also skills, such as management, marketing and fundraising.

The Women's Rights Fund enables the Fund for Global Human Rights to highlight the work of more than eighty women’s rights grantees; underscore the connection between legal, economic and social discrimination against women throughout the world; and attract new financial resources to the Fund—enabling us to expand our grant-making on the range of critical human rights issues affecting women’s everyday lives.

The Women's Fund of Miami-Dade has awarded over $2 million to more than 225 projects serving thousands of women and girls and has played an important role in encouraging the development of more programs designed with the need of women and girls in mind and strengthening existing gender-specific programs.

Goals of the Women's Foundation:
Goal 1 - (Program / Grantmaking) - Lead change through collaboration and make grants that are targeted by research, evaluated for impact, and build economic self-reliance for women and girls.
Goal 2 - (Research / Communications) - Define and communicate the status, issues and solutions for women and girls and establish TWF as a leading voice in the community.
Goal 3 - (Resource Development) - Increase funding for Hong Kong women and girls by fundraising to ensure long-term financial support of our mission and strategic plan.

The Ms. Foundation actively works to bring race, class, age and sexuality to the center of feminist organizing (a concept we call social justice feminism) and to bring a gender lens to the center of broader progressive organizing (a concept we call feminist social justice).
