Women’s Empowerment Coalition (WECO)

Mission

We want to change the everyday lives of women by fostering institutional change from the grassroots level

Our model allows us to impact more people by spreading resources to international organizations that are already doing meaningful and engaging work. We supplement our partners’ ongoing programs with supplies, assistance with project planning and management, and ongoing fundraising assistance to help them more successfully achieve their mission. These organizations are comprised of people dedicated to improving their communities by empowering women, and have a demonstrated impact.

We believe that building a coalition for women’s empowerment on a grassroots level creates lasting change because it contributes to the transformation of entire infrastructures. On an organizational scale, it also enables a transfer of knowledge and experience between organizations from different countries and cultures in a way that strengthens all grassroots civil society.

We are not only working towards gender equality in one community; we are working towards gender equality on a global scale.
