Global Fund For Women

The Global Fund for Women is a publicly supported, nonprofit grantmaking foundation that advances women’s human rights by funding women-led organizations worldwide. We provide general operating support grants to organizations working at the local, regional and national levels to enable women and girls to reach their potential and live free of discrimination and violence.

We advocate for and defend women’s human rights by making grants to support women’s groups in five regions: Sub-Saharan Africa, Middle East and North Africa, Europe and Central Asia, Asia Pacific and Latin America and the Caribbean. Since its inception in 1987, the Global Fund has granted over $185 million to more than 5,235 organizations in 176 countries.
