The Global Fund for Women supports women's groups that advance the human rights of women and girls. We strengthen women's right groups based outside the United States by providing small, flexible, and timely grants ranging from $500 to $30,000 for operating and program expenses. We value local expertise and believe that women themselves know best how to determine their needs and propose solutions for lasting change.

Groups of women working together.
Organizations that demonstrate a clear commitment to women’s equality and women’s human rights.
Organizations that are governed and directed by women.
