About The Women Empowered Fund
Women bear almost all responsibility for meeting basic needs of the family, yet are systematically denied the resources, information and freedom of action they need to fulfill this responsibility. As a result, the world’s poor are overwhelmingly women, as well as two thirds of the world’s illiterate population. And while women make up almost half of farmers in developing countries, they produce up to 30% less than their male counterparts, and account for less than 15% of farmland owners.
We’ve created the Women Empowered Fund in recognition of the issues of gender inequality that women face in overcoming hunger and poverty in the countries where we work.
Your donation could help help women them access loans so they can start their own businesses, and educate them about their rights and how to exercise them.
If you give a minimum of $1,000.00, you will automatically become a Women Empowered Collective member. Becoming a member of the Collective connects you with other passionate Investors and Partners who are committed to breaking the gender barriers that stop women from reaching their true potential in the countries where we work.
About The Hunger Project
Hunger is on the rise, over 800 million people are experiencing hunger today. The Hunger Project works to solve hunger and poverty in remote communities across Africa, India, Bangladesh and Latin America. Unlike many conventional aid models, we do this through innovative and proven in-country programs that empower communities to become self-reliant by giving them the skills, knowledge and resources they need to break the poverty cycle themselves. We identify and build community leaders, then enable them to unite and transform their village through education, agriculture, health and microfinancing. This allows them to create a hunger-free future we're no longer needed for.
