GlobalGiving Girl Fund

Summary

Imagine a world where every girl can create her own future. The Girl Fund champions effective GlobalGiving projects providing girls with education, legal protection, healthcare, and job skills. With less than 2% of global philanthropic dollars reaching women and girls, we're changing this through community-led approaches, strategic fundraising, and powerful storytelling. Our network spans 170+ countries and 6,000+ partners, uniquely positioning us to advance gender equality worldwide.

Challenge

Women and girls power the world, working 70% of its hours but receiving just 10% of the income and 2% of philanthropic funding. Local organizations led by women are routinely bypassed, especially where gender inequality overlaps with climate change, poverty, and hunger. These women face the greatest challenges-but are excluded from the solutions. Until that changes, we're leaving transformative, community-rooted leadership on the sidelines.

Solution

Your support invests directly in community-led organizations breaking barriers for girls. Rather than imposing outside agendas, we amplify local leaders already creating tailored solutions. Your donation catalyzes transformation by supporting those who know best how to create lasting change in their communities.

How Your Donation Will Be Used

When women and girls thrive, they uplift everyone around them. Our approach ensures sustainable transformation through:

  • Community-led solutions that foster local ownership
  • Cohort collaboration that builds collective power
  • Strategic and flexible funding that responds to emerging needs
  • Authentic storytelling that reshapes narratives about girls' potential

The result is exponential impact: empowered women and girls strengthen communities and restructure systems to increase equity, creating lasting change for generations.

Join us in directing resources where they'll create the greatest impact. Together, we can unlock the power of girls to transform our world.
