Women's Empowerment Campaign Chooses Winners
April 12, 2011
This information came across our desk and we simply had to pass it along.
GreatNonprofits announced that 82 organizations working on important women's issues across the country have qualified for the 2011 Top-Rated Women's Empowerment Nonprofits List based on user reviews.
The reviews were posted as part of the 2011 GreatNonprofits Women's Empowerment Campaign, conducted in partnership with GuideStar and a broad coalition of leaders in the field including, the National Council of Women's Organizations, the American Association of University Women, the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, Women's Funding Network and the National Center for Lesbian Rights.
During National Women's History Month, thousands of reviewers helped tell the story of how these organizations serve and empower women around the world. Among the nonprofits making the top-rated list is the Fistula Foundation, an organization committed to providing care for women worldwide suffering from this devastating health issue.
"Once people take time to learn more about fistula and the work we do, they become our biggest champions," shares Kate Grant, Executive Director of the Fistula Foundation. She adds. "We've earned their trust. But we don't want the American public to just take our word for it. We want people to see for themselves what our volunteers, donors and board leaders have to say. GreatNonprofits is giving a megaphone to those who know us. And we want everyone who cares about the work we do to hear what they have to say. We're thankful to GreatNonprofits for helping to turn up the volume in this way. Their Women's Empowerment Campaign is an enormous boost for us, a small but mighty charity doing admirable work and helping restore health and dignity each year for thousands of the world's poorest women in countries throughout Africa and Asia."
Diane Dvorin, co-founder and director of Women Work Together agrees. "Qualifying for the 2011 List of Great Nonprofits opens new ways for Women Work Together to cultivate connections with both qualified volunteers and potential donors as we work to expand support for WWT's leadership development and community building programs with Mayan girls and women in San Pedro Sacatepequez Guatemala."
