I am planning a charity event to give back to moms/women in need and I have two goals that I would love help with! 1. Building an event every year that gives back to moms/ women in need. This year we are giving back to Chloe Inc. 🙌 My ask: Please tag nonprofits that fit the above descriptoon below 2. Building this event to celebrate women's another goal is to not only bring awareness to local women-founded brands but also to bring in CPG brands that are founded by women. My ask: Please tag women founders that I can connect with below!

Less than 2% of charitable giving in the United States goes to women and girls—and only a fraction of that goes to supporting girls and young women of color. This #InternationalWomensDay, we're calling on philanthropy to #InvestInWomen by creating spaces where adolescent girls and young women of color can learn, play, dream, and become powerful movement leaders. Tides Foundation's Advancing Girls Fund powers grantmaking for girls and young women of color and their allies. Since 2021, we’ve granted more than $61.9M to 150+ girl-centered organizations in 20 countries, 90% of which are BIPOC-led. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/ercMjJxw

I talk a lot on here about the lack of funding for women. I see it so much with the businesses I run and those of my peers. It's sad to see it goes beyond business and into the not for profit sector. This may be research from 2021, but my gut is not much has changed. And As we are in #BlackHistoryMonth this research shows this funding is even smaller for charities that support minority communities and are female run. https://lnkd.in/eUNtTAkD #fundwomen

Donate to our Chicago SmithGroup Woman Build Team if you can! The life-changing benefits of affordable homeownership are immense: it can improve school performance, improve financial outcomes, and enhance the health and well-being of children and adults – just to name a few. But due to gendered systemic barriers, like the pay gap and its impact on credit access and uneven childcare responsibilities that limit time and financial resources, it is far more difficult for women to become homeowners. It's even harder for Black women. SmithGroup Women isn't okay with this and we're doing something about it. This October, we’re linking arms, picking up our power tools, and joining in Habitat for Humanity Chicago's Women Build to knock these barriers down. Alongside 780 determined women, we will raise $750,000 to help build Habitat Chicago homes that will be purchased by women with affordable mortgages! Then, we're hitting the Habitat Chicago construction sites to help build the homes! #designabetterfuture

Did you know that half of women in the U.S. are single due to being widowed, divorced, or having never married? If you, as a charity leader can identify and speak to the unique needs of women, the opportunity exists for you to empower their giving, legacy planning, and finish-line focus in dramatic ways. Legacy may mean something entirely different to them than it did to their parents or their spouses. In this webinar, we’ll consider what it looks like for charities to serve women givers with greater intentionality and understanding – especially engaging those who are going it alone.
