Supporting grassroots projects that improve the lives of women and girls in underserved communities.

Giving Women works alongside with women-focused grassroots organisations By sharing our time, skills, and expertise, we help them build capacity and become grant-ready.

Our goal is to help these organisations have a greater, lasting impact and become more sustainable – empowering more women and girls to shape their futures.

How we support projects

Our members share their time, skills, and expertise, pro-bono, in the following areas, to help organisations strengthen their foundations, build capacity, and become grant-ready. Together, we provide guidance and co-create practical solutions across key areas that help projects grow stronger, more sustainable, and ready for lasting impact.

Sounding Board & Mentorship
Every leader needs a safe space to share challenges and ideas. We listen, support, and walk alongside you to find practical ways forward with confidence.

Organisational & Strategic Development
When organisations face change, we help clarify direction, strengthen structures, and lay the foundations for lasting growth.

Communications & Marketing
Clear, authentic communication is key to sharing your mission and attracting support. We help you shape messages into compelling stories that inspire action.

Governance Structures
Good governance brings stability and trust. Together, we review, refine, and revitalise structures that support long-term success.

Fundraising Strategy
While we do not raise funds, we help you design clear, actionable strategies to overcome challenges and grow your support.

Monitoring & Evaluation
Understanding your impact is key to driving change. We guide you in building simple, effective systems to measure results, learn, and grow with confidence.
