What does DFW mean in UNCLASSIFIED

Collective Giving is a powerful way to come together as a group to make a larger impact. With this approach, everyone in the group donates an equal amount of money each month, no matter how much or how little they have. Together these gifts are pooled to create one donation that goes towards funding programs around the world.

The basic concept behind Dining for Women’s model is simple: Gather together with friends – either virtually or at home – to share potluck meals and lively conversations about women’s empowerment issues. Instead of spending money on dinner out and drinks, members donate at least $35 ($10 for students) per month directly to grassroots programs selected by Dining for Women and its partner organizations. At the end of each gathering, everyone raises their glasses to toast all the amazing work being done throughout the world and celebrates their collective impact!

To date, Dining For Women has funded more than 500 projects in 47 countries around the world that focus on providing access to health care education, economic opportunities, nutrition, safety from violence and other social services in developing countries. These grassroots programs are selected by an independent grant-making committee based on need and efficacy.

Your gift directly impacts the lives of thousands of women around the world every year through access to critical resources like health care education, economic opportunities wellness initiatives, nutrition and financial literacy programs. Your donation also helps provide safe spaces where girls can be protected from abuse, exploitation and trafficking while building meaningful relationships with mentors who can help them reach their full potential.

Your official tax receipt will be issued at the end of each calendar year via email after your last monthly donation of that year is processed successfully (February if you joined during January).
