Young women have the passion and vision to solve these problems, but simply lack the necessary resources. We build the capacity of future female leaders to tackle root causes of poverty and discrimination. We have equipped 200 promising…See More

Hi:

I'm Christa, a 5fer intern, and am just dropping by to say "Thank you!" for being such a loyal 5fer.  It is because of 5fers like you that we have been able to give away seven (yes, seven!) $5000 grants to organizations working to make the world fair for girls and women - and we're only a few hundred dollars away from our eighth!  We are so appreciative of the way you have put up with all our many growing pains and hope you keep on believing in our circle and the good we can do.  Thanks again…
Christa

Hi Caren,

I’m the co-founder of Women LEAD, one of the teams competing for the grant this month. I’d love your support to empower more than 200 young women in Nepal to become leaders in their schools and communities! Your vote would help us build the capacity of future female leaders to tackle the root causes of poverty and discrimination. Our organization strongly believes that building young women's confidence and skills is key to empowerment. Please check out our page and website to see the work that we do and let us know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Hi, my name is Madi L and I'm a 5 for Fairness intern. I'm stopping by to let you know now is the perfect time to support any Teams you think deserve spots in the Voting Round.  There are seven teams in the running and only five spots, so please take the time to look at all of the teams and support your favorites.  Here is how you can become a Team supporter.

Go to the teams tab and look at the teams individually, and if you find one to be intriguing, click the +Support (Team name) button on the top right corner of the Team page. For more "official" instructions on how to support a Team, click hereClick here to see all of the teams in the running. We appreciate all of your help and support!

 

Thank you,

Welcome, Karen!  So glad to have you part of our group! I'll be announcing our new grant cycle tomorrow so the fun begins!  If you want to see the Teams in the running, click here.  If you click on any Team, you will be taken to their page where you can read more about them and the work they do.  If you want to support any of them and thus help them get out of the 4 week primary into the voting round, just clic the Support button in the upper right hand corner of every Team page.  The 5 Teams with the most supporters move to the voting round.  You can support as many Teams as you like, but we all only get one vote when the time comes. More soon and again, welcome!
