…regardless of race, gender, wealth, or where they happen to be born. Yet, inequality continues to shut doors of opportunity and limit independence for women and girls everywhere.
Together we can make a difference.
From chapter meetings to trips, our community provides opportunities to learn, connect, and make a difference.
Everyone is welcome to participate and give what they can.
April invites us to pause and recognize something truly powerful: the impact of people who choose to give their time, their energy, and their hearts. Volunteer Appreciation Month is more than a moment on the calendar—it’s a chance to honor the individuals whose generosity strengthens our communities and keeps our mission moving forward.

In Uganda’s Kibuuku District, young women like Stella face limited job opportunities, energy poverty, and few pathways to grow a business. While demand for solar energy is high in off-grid communities, lack of training, capital, and access to resources often keeps women from turning opportunity into sustainable income.
Through Imagine Her’s Green Energy Lab, supported by Together Women Rise, Stella gained hands-on training in social entrepreneurship, financial management, and renewable energy, along with start-up funding to expand her solar business. Today, she serves customers in her community, employs staff, and provides energy solutions tailored to local needs. By equipping young women with technical skills, mentorship, and access to capital, the program empowers them to launch green enterprises, build financial independence, and lead climate-resilient change, which brings clean energy, opportunity, and lasting impact to their communities.

Growing up, Christina faced the same barriers that keep many girls from reaching their potential—poverty, long walks to school, and constant pressure to leave education behind. Without money for boarding fees or school supplies, she struggled to keep up in class while balancing responsibilities at home, uncertain if finishing school would even be possible.
Through Together Women Rise partner, CAMFED, Christina received the fees, supplies, and mentorship she needed to stay in school and succeed academically. After graduating, she started her own business and became a CAMFED Transition Guide, mentoring other young women as they navigate the vulnerable period after secondary school. By providing peer-led training in financial literacy, health, leadership, and entrepreneurship, the Transition Guide program helps young women build livelihoods and confidence—ensuring that educated girls don’t just change their own futures, but lead progress across their communities.

Women account for less than 15 percent of all landowners worldwide, often due to discriminatory laws or social and cultural barriers that prevent them from acquiring, controlling and inheriting land. Strengthening land rights for women and girls is key to advancing gender equality, ending poverty, and ensuring a sustainable planet.
That’s why Together Women Rise is partnering with Landesa, an organization working to secure land rights for millions of the world’s poorest, especially rural women. Our investments are supporting meaningful systems change related to women’s land rights and equality.
