The Sisterhood Is Global Institute, Inc.

With a vision to strengthen leading frontline women's organizations around the world, FWF links strong frontline women's rights partners around the world to funding, visibility & political power.

We capitalize on the power of collective fundraising, using the media and internet outreach to raise awareness and mobilize movements. We apply for grants and, when applicable, nominate our thematic funds or specific frontline organizations for grants as well. We plan events, panels, and create videos about these organizations, telling their stories to publish on our social media platforms and send them out in targeted e-blasts. We also help the these organizations in making the political connections they need to get their message heard by the people in a position to create lasting changes.

We have an extremely distinguished board that have been active in the fight for equality for decades. Our founder Robin Morgan has been a feminist activist since the 1960's and founded the Sisterhood is Global Institute in 1984, along with Simone de Beauvoir, the famed writer and philosopher, writing about feminine oppression since the 1940's. On our board are other famed feminists, lawyers, and public figures and these connections have opened doors, allowing us access to political and public figures and be active participants at the UN.

To date, we have raised over $3 million for the 14 front line organizations we support. We will continue to fight for equality and fundraise on behalf of our partner organizations who are striving to make the world a safer place for women and children.
