Profile Information

What draws you to our cause?
Being part of several supportive teams was very important for me as I grew up, especially when other challenges were thrown in my path. I would love for young people in Bangladesh to have opportunities to participate in team activities (like basketball!) that foster supportive peer groups and personal growth.

Hi Gretchen,

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 Payton M, I am a 5 For Fairness intern. I’m stopping by to let you know that now is the time to support your favorite team or teams to help them advance into the voting round. Seven teams are competing for five available spots in the voting round. The five teams that make it to the voting round will have a chance to win our $5000 grant, but only one team will win. The teams need your support now to make it into the voting round.  Here's how to support a Team:

First click on the Teams tab at the top of any page to see all of the teams. Click on any team that sounds interesting to you. If you like what you see and want to become a supporter, click the +Support (Team name) button in the upper right hand corner of the Team page. You can support as many Teams as you think deserve a spot in the Voting Round. Click here for more information on how to support a Team or, if you are ready to start, click here to see all the Teams.

 

Thanks for supporting 5 For Fairness, 

Payton M.

Hi there. I'm Eliza, one of the 5 for Fairness interns, and I want to make sure you knew that we are about to start a new voting round and decide where to send our second 5 for Fairness grant. I'm here today to ask you to join at least one Team that you think deserves a grant. The Teams that are in the running are MOSTE (Motivating Our Students Through Experience), Help the Afghan Children, Man Up, Global Fund for Women, Women's Empowerment in Uganda and Global Girl Media

In order to recapture the site's vitality and to give the newer Teams a fair chance, we hope that you will take a minute of your time and join a team today. Thank you.

Hi and welcome to 5 for Fairness. I know you have come here to support Juliet's team and thus am sure you will want to head on over there and join it. If you have a minute to take a look at the other teams that have been started so far, please know that you can join as many teams as you feel worthy of your support and then, when it comes time to vote (when our Grant Account reaches $5000), you can pick your favorite. Also, if as you are visiting any Team pages, you have questions about the program, please feel free to click the Start Discussion link at the bottom of the Team page and ask away. Part of our mission is to educate ourselves and non-profits about the kinds of questions potential supporters have about projects and how e can all give in the most effective and meaningful way. In any case, thanks again for joining and....welcome!

Anna

PS I sent you a "friend" request. Hope you'll accept it!
