CARE's Women's Empowerment Fund (Q1-2, 2024)

Gender remains one of the most fundamental sources of inequality in the world today. Discrimination against women has negative implications for global security and development, economic performance, food security, health, climate adaptation and the environment, governance, and stability.

CARE is fighting for greater gender equality, the elimination of gender-based violence (GBV) and increased leadership and educational opportunities for women and girls around the world. 

CARE creates meaningful partnerships with social justice movements and supports solidarity groups among women and girls. CARE also tackles harmful gender and social norms, working to mitigate, prevent and respond to gender-based violence, engaging men and boys, and taking steps to hold itself accountable to its commitments.

In 2023, CARE and partners worked in 109 countries, reaching 167 million people around the world through poverty-fighting development and humanitarian aid programs. Learn more about their work and how you can get involved here.
