women's empowerment coalition (weco)

Our mission is to combat global gender inequality by creating a network of international grassroots organizations working for women’s rights in their communities. We research and vet our partner organizations and then support them in tangible ways, through relationships with those who understand the nuanced process of women’s empowerment in their specific communities. We are not only working towards gender equality in one community; we are simultaneously working towards gender equality on a global scale. We want to change the everyday lives of women by fostering institutional change from the grassroots level. This begins with communities coming together and identifying their needs in an organic nature. Our model allows us to impact more people by spreading resources around to organizations already impacting their communities. We supplement our partners’ ongoing programs with supplies, project planning and management, and fundraising assistance to help them more successfully achieve their mission. These organizations are comprised of people dedicated to improving their communities by empowering women and have a demonstrated impact. We support these ongoing efforts in sustainable, meaningful ways. To stay up-to-date on our projects, please follow us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/wecoalition
