Madre: Care in Crisis

About

The COVID-19 pandemic calls upon us to move quickly to save lives as we manage grief, fear and frustration. It also calls us to leverage what we know about social change and recognize that emergency responses to this crisis are seeding the future right now. MADRE is taking action: we are providing funds for emergency support to women, girls and communities most at-risk, who are often overlooked in times of crisis.

We work with communities that have experienced wars, genocide, disasters and more. Now they must work to care for each other through the COVID-19 crisis. MADRE gets essential resources to grassroots women’s organizations that need it most. Together with you, MADRE strengthens grassroots women's organizations confronting war, disaster and their aftermath. We help our partners meet urgent needs, build safer and healthier communities, and advocate for lasting change and just solutions.
