SUMMARY:Film screening - NAWI (award winner)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a powerful morning screening of Nawi\, followed by a discussion with the screenwriter\, Milcah Cherotich. \nThis event supports FOTIS students in nine countries to access secondary education\, as well as Loropio Girls High School in Turkana\, Kenya\, a current Giving Women Project Circle. \nAbout the film\nNawi tells the story of a 13-year-old girl forced into marriage with a much older man in exchange for a herd of goats. Inspired by true events\, it is a story of courage and what it costs when a girl refuses the path chosen for her and fights for her education. \nWritten by Milcah Cherotich after winning a nationwide writing competition in Kenya\, Nawi has received major recognition\, including an Africa Academy Award\, and awards at international festivals such as Raindance (London)and the Pan African Film Festival (Los Angeles). It was also selected as Kenya’s Oscar entry (2025). This screening is an avant-première in Geneva and Switzerland\, ahead of its international release in 2026. \nLanguage: Original version (VO) with English subtitles \nWe look forward to welcoming you for a meaningful film and conversation. \nCannot attend?\nYou can still support girls’ education by making a donation to FOTIS.\nDonate here: https://fotis.ch/donate/

SUMMARY:Membership kick-off
DESCRIPTION:Our membership kick-off meeting is designed to help you confidently begin your journey within our community of informed women philanthropists. \nIn this informal one-hour session\, you will discover how Giving Women works and how our model of Action Philanthropy translates intention into meaningful\, lasting impact for girls and women in underserved communities around the world. \nYou will gain insight into our three pillars: \n\n\nProject Circles – where small groups of members accompany grassroots organisations over 18-24 months\, working on real strategic challenges to strengthen their long-term sustainability. \n\n\nLearning & Workshops – equipping members and partners with the knowledge and tools to act thoughtfully and effectively. \n\n\nPanels & Conversations – creating space to explore complex issues and amplify the voices of women who are too often unheard. \n\n\nThe session will also walk you through the different ways you can engage — whether by joining a Project Circle\, contributing your professional expertise\, becoming an Ambassador\, or supporting one of our committees. \nNo preparation is required\, simply bring your curiosity and enthusiasm. \nWe look forward to welcoming you and supporting you as you begin your Giving Women journey. \nNot yet a member?\nIf you are not yet a member but would like to attend to learn more about Giving Women\, please email us.
