There are nearly 47,000 nonprofits in the United States dedicated to serving women and girls. Yet they receive only 1.6% of all charitable giving, causing significant disparities amid a pandemic that has disproportionately affected women. How can we fight for equality if organizations lack access to the resources they need?
At the same, women are a growing force in philanthropy, and research demonstrates that women are more likely to donate than men. From mega-philanthropists such as MacKenzie Scott to board leaders and community activists, women have transformative power in the nonprofit sector.
This dynamic panel shines a light on women in philanthropy and trends on giving to organizations serving women and girls.
