Women for Women International

Women for Women
Women for Women International can not provide direct financial and emotional support to women living on the margins of hope without the backing of a global community of dedicated staff, volunteers, generous donors, supporters and friends.

In 2005 alone, Women for Women International empowered over 30,000 women survivors of war to move toward economic self-sufficiency with our year-long program of direct aid, rights education, job skills training and small business development.  We distributed $9.3 million in direct aid, microcredit loans, and other program services.  Since 1993, Women for Women International has mobilized more than 125,000 women and men in 105 countries worldwide to reach out and support women survivors of war - one woman at a time.

Our supporters contribute resources, time and energy to help to make the future brighter for thousands of women survivors of war. With your ongoing support, Women for Women International will continue to address women's immediate and long-term needs, work to improve their status and opportunities and see what can be done to create a more just and peaceful world.
