Campaign to Spur Giving by Wealthy Women Surpasses Target
A worldwide campaign to persuade women to give $1-million each to organizations that focus on women and girls has raised $177-million, $25-million more than its goal, reports The Seattle Times.
The article spotlights Seattle-area participants in the Women Moving Millions drive who donated $1-million each to the northwestern city’s Women’s Funding Alliance, which supports some 140 groups providing economic, legal, and other assistance in the Puget Sound region.
