Our Mission
"The National Women’s History Alliance formerly, the National Women’s History Project, is a leader in promoting Women’s History and is committed to the goals of education, empowerment, equality, and inclusion."
Our Purpose
"Women’s history remains largely absent from school history curricula and the media. Multicultural American women especially are overlooked in most mainstream approaches to U.S. history. Our history helps us learn who we are; without it, our power and dreams are diminished. Women must not be denied their own history."

"For over a century, the American Medical Women’s Association (AMWA) has been committed to the advancement of women in medicine. Although the number of women choosing careers in medicine has grown substantially, there has not been a commensurate rise in women to senior leadership positions. AMWA’s work helps address this gender gap in leadership, through advocacy, mentorship and sponsorship, leadership development, research, constituency building, and policy reform – with a goal for institutional and cultural transformation in gender equity and career parity."
The Mission
"At AnitaB.org, we envision a future where the people who imagine and build technology mirror the people and societies for whom they build it. We connect, inspire, and guide women in computing, and organizations that view technology innovation as a strategic imperative. Our social enterprise supports women in technical fields, as well as the organizations that employ them and the academic institutions training the next generation. A full roster of programs helps women and non-binary technologists grow, learn, and develop their highest potential."

Our Approach
"From war-torn towns to the halls of the United Nations, our global community invests in women survivors of war and conflict, connecting them with each other, resources, and support to realize their own power. For 30 years, Women for Women International has used an integrated approach to invest in women's power: We are a learning organization that listens to data, our teams around the world, and women themselves to constantly evolve and improve the way we work."

About Us
"The gender gap in computing is getting worse. In 1995, 37% of computer scientists were women. Today, it’s only 24%. The percent will continue to decline if we do nothing. We know that the biggest drop off of girls in computer science is between the ages of 13 and 17. Girls Who Code is changing the game: We're reaching girls around the world and are on track to close the gender gap in new entry-level tech jobs by 2030."
