Jenny Clark: Building a Better Future with Womens' Empowerment
Did you know that just 1.9% of all donations make it to organizations dedicated to women and girls?
WECO’s (Women Empowerment Coalition) mission is to connect vetted grassroots initiatives to much-needed resources and volunteers, to invest in women who are invested in their communities. With projects in Cambodia, Peru, India, and Costa Rica, our vision is to live in a world where women and girls have equal opportunities to succeed. To work towards these goals, we:
-
Connect vetted grassroots initiatives to catalyze local efforts and build local infrastructures.
-
Support these initiatives to create positive change from the ground up.
-
Address gender equity beyond projects on a larger scale.
Please join us for our April meeting to meet Jenny, find out more about WECO, and learn how to get involved. You can also check out the following links:
