Charitable Giving to Women & Girls

"More than 80% of children in single-parent homes live with their mom. The disparity of income between single moms and single dads means women are 36% more likely to live in poverty than men."

​

"For single mothers, who are more likely to live in poverty than other women, earning postsecondary credentials can bring substantial benefits, from increased lifetime earnings and employment rates to better health outcomes and chances of success for their children."

​

"Despite making up nearly half of the U.S. workforce, women are still vastly underrepresented in the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) workforce at only 27%."

​

"Philanthropic support for women's and girls' organizations is only 1.9% of overall charitable giving."

​

YOUR SUPPORT IS GREATLY NEEDED & APPRECIATED!
