HER Hub: Raise Women's Leadership Together!

I hope you are doing well physically, psychologically and mentally. It's important to take care of our well-being, especially during pandemic days. It's equally important for the women leaders in the community.

Hong Kong is a crowded and high GDP area. Our apartment is very small but expensive. During the pandemic period, carers have to stay at home with kids and family members together. They need to serve as housekeeping, teachers, and technical support. Migrant domestic workers are the same. With the request by their employers, they have to stay home and no chance to meet friends during the weekend. Organizers of the organizations/groups are very stressed because they need to fulfil the funding requirements while they can't hold any activity. They have lots of work to care for the community but no time and energy to take care of themselves.

We see well-being, self-reflection of using power and leadership style, etc. are important elements to be a feminist leader. We seldom have space to pause, reflect and listen to our inner self. We created an opportunity for women leaders to come together to do collective care, to reflect our way of thinking and doing.

One workshop is not enough. It's a long journey to make it sustainable. It is impossible to achieve it without your donation support.

Please invite your friends, colleagues and company to DONATE and support the grassroots and marginalized women leaders in Hong Kong.

Financial Management is something always being a challenging topic to all organisations, especially small and grassroots organisations. These organisations may not have members or staff or volunteers to have an accounting background but they have to do it in a good way for their organisation sustainability especially during the economic recession period. 

With a partnership with a group of professional accountants, we are providing tailor-made financial management training to six women and sexual minorities groups to grow their capacity on financial management. During COVID days, we started to do it last week through zoom. However, we also arranged on-site technical support to grassroots women who are not good at technology so we hope that it is not an obstacle for them to learn.

Your continuous support is very important for us to keep our support to women's leaders and their organisations to keep advancing women's rights and gender equality. Please share to your friends and encourage them to walk the journey with us together by donating to support HER Fund!

Thank you and wish you have a healthy, safe and joyful year 2021!

best,
Judy Kan
