It is a wonderful organization that gives women living in the hardest places to be a woman a chance to understand their rights and start businesses. They become self-sufficient, confident and regain ...dignity that should be a given for all. Women for Women International has the best impact measures I've ever seen and, creating a relationship with one of the women in our program through our sponsorship program, you not only enable her to transform her life and the lives of her children, you will find yourself inspired and transformed as well!!

I like programs like this that have increased the
Self esteem and productivity of many women
Finding themselves on unfortune situations. It also...
Widens my horizons as an armchair traveler and
Makes me more appreciative for what i have: i like
Buying clothes From international groups as it
Connects me more to countries i will probably never

Good Organization that impressed me enough to make a small "test" donation in December. But the money I gave--and probably much more than that amount--has been used to bombard me with mailings. I neve...r got one mailing from them before my donation. Which will be the last money I give. WHY do charities do this?????? See More

If This Charity would work very hard to do everything necessary to Improve their Ratings on Charitynavigator dot org and Improve their score and Rate that only 74% of the money donated actually Goes t...o the Programs, I would wholeheartedly support, even include it in my Will. But NOT UNTIL This Charity Improves Vastly How much of the money donated, actally goes to the Programs...Which are amazing Programs. An 81.73 out of 100 Overall score, with only 74% of donations going to Actual Programs is just not acceptable to me. While many other Charities have much greater percentages of donations going to actual programs. Would really love to support this Charity, it is very close to my heart, and Inspiring, But less than 3/4 of donations going to actual programs just does Not Cut It, for me. Please Improve This, I urge you. Your Work is Amazing, So Needed in this World. Find out what you are doing that could improve this, Please. See More

I love women for women international. It is a great way to support women all over the world. The only thing I would like more is if they went back to letting me select which country I want to support.... I started out years ago when we could select countries to supporting and I chose to support women (and there families) in Rwanda and DRC. Recently they removed that choice and I miss that. I love supporting in general but I love the power of choice even more. See More

My American true story.
I was transferred to Harris Beach in 2000 from Lester Schwab, for which I got credit, so, Harris Beach considered me as an employee since 1997. I had 20/20 vision then and it was a combination of circumstances and working environment at Harris Beach, which left me legally blind in 2003.
My life has been ruined because of my employer’s one negligent mistake. In summer of 2003, I suddenly started losing vision. On August 26, 2003, my employer Harris Beach LLP gave me separation agreement and fired me the very same day. On May 12, 2004 my attorneys - Mr. Gary Phelan and Ms. Tammy Marzigliano, from Outten & Golden filed a claim with EEOC which was dismissed. During almost four months of the EEOC's investigation I never met or spoke with my investigator. On November 19, 2004, I submitted my summons & complaint in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York. It was filed with the court and dated January 3, 2005. In my complaint I stated that, while working at Harris Beach, I suffered severe damage to my health causing me to lose eye-sight (non-hodgkin’s lymphoma) due to deteriorating workplace conditions and construction at the office (ongoing construction at the office of Harris Beach at World Trade Center lasted from May 2000 up until the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001). As a result of deteriorating workplace conditions, I developed a disability, eventually becoming legally blind. On September 12, 2005, I had my first mediation with the defendant. They offered four thousand dollars (4)!. My attorneys and I at the time considered it frivolous treatment of serious life-threatening condition. On October 5, 2006 I had my second mediation, the defendant increased the amount to twenty-five thousand. On July 13, 2007 we finally had our pretrial conference and I was offered two hundred thousand (court transcript Batlidze v Harris Beach LLP. 05 civ. 0086 July 13, 2007 page 45). I refused settlement because I considered the amount not reflective of the actual damages that I had suffered as a result of defendant’s actions. On December 14, 2007, the defendant filed renewed motion for summary judgment. On May 8, 2008, the judge issued the opinion and order granting defendant's motion for summary judgment. On May 9, 2008, the court closed my case.
I truly do not believe that the defendant and the court at the time treated me equitably and justly. My life quickly spiraled downward as the result of the defendant’s actions and the court’s lenient attitude towards the defendant. Being legally blind, I could not easily procure another job or attain a necessary status to maintain my daily basic activities. In April 2008, my ex-husband was arrested in Tbilisi, Georgia and my son Giorgi Eradze was murdered in July 2008, which forced me to abandon my residence in New York and I arrived in Georgia to start the murder investigation process. It all happened in 2008. My situation locally here may have something to do with the fact that some of my family members (including my brother) were wrongfully arrested and imprisoned here. When my brother was arrested in Tbilisi on November 11, 2016, police took some of my documents: Citibank statements, 401k statements, United States court documents, divorce certificate. I presently have serious reason to believe that my safety here in Georgia is in danger too.

Unfortunately, I am going to have to leave a negative review about this company. I got behind their mission and made a donation. Now, I can't get off their physical mailng list. They send thick envelo...pes every week to my house AND WORK! I have called and talked to them over the phone and have sent numerous emails asking kindly to be taking off their mailing list. They don't even respond to my emails anymore. My employer is not happy about me getting personal mail at work. I don't know what else to do with them. If you are looking to donate to a women's charity, I recommend going elsewhere. Their customer service doesn't follow through or else they just don't care. See More

I feel sadness for women around the world who suffer from war and the many violent acts against them and their children. Also, I wonder where I would be if my grandparents would have been turned awa...y and sent back to 'the old country' when they arrived at Ellis Island in 1913 and 1914. Lebanon was under the rule of the Ottoman Turkish Empire at that time, and the WWI was getting started. They were listed as Syrian at that time. Lebanon was not officially a country at that time.

I think this organisation is doing a wonderful job to conserve water. Potable Water is precious and should not be wasted, it is the life giver.

#Muslim women are expressing themselves in new and fashionable ways. Women in Muslim-majority countries are working within the conservative dress regulations and creating a style that is all their own. This is an amazing look at the development of Muslim fashion and how women are making a statement.

The rebellious potential of an apparently conservative style

"I was very happy to receive a letter...I want to tell my sponsor sister: 'Thank you so much for supporting me. I want to help others in the future, the way you have helped me," shares Faith who graduated from our programme in Nigeria. This International Women’s Day, 8th March, we will be asking you to get involved and send a message of sisterhood to women in some of the world’s most dangerous places. Watch this space for how to get involved. #FridayFeeling #MessageToMySister #IWD Photo: Monilekan photography
