Donate

More than a name or an address,
we are people helping people.

Every RSS donation goes directly toward supporting the mission: to promote individual autonomy, cultivate social capital, and enrich our community. Help however youโ€™re able and willing. To someone, it could make all the difference in the world.

Thereโ€™s more than one way to make an impact:โ€‹

โ€œI often say that I tell my story not because it is unique, but because it is the story of many girls. I think realizing that youโ€™re not alone, that you are standing with millions of your sisters around the world is vital.โ€ ~Malala Yousafzai Join us. @welcome.to.rss #supportrefugeewomen #supportrefugees #refugees #supportwomen #womensupportingwomen #welcome #welcomerefugees #allarewelcome #allarewelcomehere #beautyindiversity #strengthindiversity #standwithrefugees #standforpeace #standforequality #standforjustice #standforfreedom #standfordiversity #peace #equality #justice #freedom #diversity #kindness #bekind #kindnessmatters #womenaroundtheworld #bethechange
