King Baudouin Foundation in New York: The Fund For Congolese Women

About

The Fund for Congolese Women supports women’s grassroots organizations through financial and technical assistance. We believe in the impact of grassroots initiatives and in the power of women. We support women in their communities and focus on reaching women in particularly remote, hard to access areas of the DRC. Why? We know that women and girls are the main actors for real and sustainable change.

Since its inception in 2007, FFC has funded more than 386 projects throughout the Democratic Republic of Congo. We support projects focusing on eliminating sexual violence against women, delivering empowerment programs for women and girls, educating women about HIV/AIDS and reproductive health, and advocating for environmental justice and access to resources and land for women.
