Womn for Women International's Annual Luncheon
Please join Women for Women International for our 2023 Annual Luncheon!
Conflict and crisis are on the rise, with women often left to bear the brunt in communities that put their needs last. All around the world, women’s rights are under attack. 2020 saw women (and the world) adapting to a global pandemic. 2021 saw women in Afghanistan being forced into a life of restrictions under the de facto government which continue to worsen every day. 2022 saw women in Ukraine fighting for their lives during the Russian invasion.
Despite the insurmountable challenges faced by women, regardless of geography, our destinies, as well as our injustices, are intertwined and we know that transformation is possible when women come together to rebuild their lives, families and communities.
This year, we are proudly celebrating our 30th anniversary! We invite you to join us to look back on our founding story, reflect on the lessons we’ve gained since 1993 and learn why investing in the power of women leads to creating a better world for all of us.
RECLAIMING OUR POWER
