About Together Women Rise
Together Women Rise builds around one recurring pattern: large, repeated grants to organizations working on gender equality, women’s empowerment, and related education, health, and safety issues. Its recent grant history shows a steady mix of partnership funding at $75,000 to $100,000 and core-sized grants at $50,000, with some organizations appearing in multiple years. Equimundo has received $100,000 grants in both 2023 and 2024, while Landesa and Equality Now each appear across more than one year as well. That repetition points to longer-term relationships rather than one-off awards. The foundation’s portfolio reaches across economic opportunity, women’s health, climate justice, education, and safety and security. Grants also extend to human-rights and anti-trafficking work, maternal and newborn health, and mental-health support. Recent recipients include the International Center for Research on Women, which received $100,000 in 2023 and 2024, and One Heart Worldwide, which received $50,000 in 2025 for maternal and newborn health. The organization’s grantmaking is organized around international partners and featured grant programs tied to women and girls in low-income and marginalized communities.
What Together Women Rise Funds
Education is a consistent theme in Together Women Rise’s giving. In 2025, it awarded $50,000 to Dian Fossey Fund for education, and in 2024 it gave $50,000 to Limitless Horizons for education. Similar support also went to Children of Vietnam, Girl Rising, and The Pangea Network, each funded at $50,000 for education-related work. Women’s health is another clear emphasis. The foundation gave $50,000 to Fistula Foundation in 2025 for maternal health and $50,000 to One Heart Worldwide in 2025 for maternal and newborn health. It also supported health-and-education programming through Impact Network International with a $50,000 grant in 2025. Its safety and rights portfolio includes $50,000 to Everfree in 2023 for human trafficking and $50,000 to No Means No Worldwide in 2025 for human rights. In economic opportunity, Kula Project received $50,000 in 2025 for economic training.

Featured grants and general grantmaking accept unsolicited applications; transformation partnerships and sustained programs do not.
