"Absolutely. It's wonderful to be in a SMALL experiment in participatory democracy and, as was decidedly NOT the case in our recent political elections, it's actually OK if the one you vote for doesn't win."

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 Alex,

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. 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 Alex,

I'm Eliza, a 5fer intern and I am here to ask you to help us get to our next $5000 grant.  We are only $1,857 away but in order to get there, we need every member to donate another $5 dollars. If we each chip in just a little, we will get there easily. To donate via Paypal, click here. Thank you for your support!

Because of your past support of Women's Empowerment in Uganda, which has not been active in this grant cycle, I am writing to ask if you would consider sharing your support with The Orchid Project. The Orchid Projects sole aim is to end the practice of female genital cutting.


As a woman and a mother I feel compelled to do my part to end the human rights violation that three million girls suffer each year as their genitals are cut without permission or anesthesia.

The Orchid Project works to end FGC by respectfully raising awareness of FCG, connecting individuals and local, national, and international organizations, and advocacy.

I know Orchid would be so grateful for your support and that this $5,000 would mean a lot to their work. Please consider supporting them to get through to the next round.

Have a wonderful day and thank you for your consideration,

Holly
