Women for Women International, a terrific organization that aids women around the globe, has a matching grant running this month. From their website: One gift. Twice the hope. Twice the impact.
A generous donor has offered to match dollar for dollar all gifts made between now and October 31, up to $100,000. With this generous Matching Gift and your support, we can help thousands more women in Sudan and around the world. Please, help us achieve the full $100,000 match today. Your gift will double in size and have double the impact!
I've boosted this group a few times before in this journal, and I really can't say enough good about it. In 2006 the organization was awarded the Conrad N. Hilton Humanitarian Prize, the world’s largest humanitarian prize of $1.5 million.
Charity Navigator gives it a
4-star rating. Even if you can't afford to sponsor someone, consider throwing some cash their way if you can spare it.
