In the lead up to International Women’s Day, we are celebrating and showcasing some of the women-centric NFPs on our platform!
This is what Jayna Huang, our community engagement coordinator had to say about today:
“International Women’s Day is a day for us to celebrate women’s achievement, increase visibility, and call out inequalities. There are many who are contributing to a world that is equal for all genders and free from bias. It’s NFPs like these, that fight for women in all stages of life and who are building towards a world that’s diverse, equitable and inclusive.”
