Building Partnerships is a Top Priority for Women First
We’re doing it through relationship-building, transparency, and shared learning.
Complex social issues like gender equity cannot be solved by a single organization. Advancing gender equity requires a concerted effort by multiple parties working across fields and organizations, from nonprofits to foundations to government agencies, companies, and financial institutions.
Our approach and commitment is to:
Engage grantees actively as partners, not as recipients of aid
Bring together grantees to learn from peers and grow their networks
Facilitate bigger grants for our grantees as they mature and diversify their support
Build partnerships with other organizations to share our data, and to engage meaningfully in the philanthropic sector and strengthen the field
Work with governments and institutions to achieve mutual goals, contribute to national priorities, and advance community development and in-country initiatives
