What they do

THE TRUSTEESHIP is A FOUNDING MEMBER AFFILIATE of THE INTERNATIONAL WOMENS FORUM, WHICH is COMPOSED of AFFILIATES THROUGHOUT THE US and AROUND THE WORLD.

THROUGH THE DISTINCTION of ITS MEMBERS and THE IMPORTANCE of THEIR CONSTITUENCIES, THE TRUSTEESHIP EXEMPLIFIES THE LEADERSHIP ROLE of WOMEN and DEMONSTRATES THE IMPACT THEY ARE HAVING ON SOCIETY.

Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
