Fully Tax Deductible
Are you looking for a last minute tax deductible donation that can really make a difference in the lives of others in 2009 and for the years beyond?? If so, seriously consider giving to 1000 Women where your donation is put to use enhancing the lives of women and their families… both locally and globally. Poverty is the #1 problem in the world – with women making up more than 70% of the world’s poor, subsisting on less than $2.50 a day. Abuse is a close second with 1 in every 3 women being sexually, physically or otherwise abused during their lifetimes. Both poverty and abuse are passed on down through generations. 1000 Women is taking action to end this downward cycle of poverty and abuse – starting in South Africa with the Women Rebuilding Africa Program (WRAP). This program trains women be leaders and Women in Capetown are so excited about this program… “I believe that these programmes will change lives of African women… to train the first group of women on how to do a recording on radio acrobat, our eyes opened wide… Charlene, one of my colleagues… She saw the impossible become possible. Charlene’s life is never the same!” exclaims Madelein Mkunu, our colleague with the Leading Women of Africa. In the USA, we are working with local agencies that provide services to at-risk women, including victims/survivors of domestic violence and abuse. AIM + programs include the “Dance of an Abusive Relationship,” “From Fear to Fulfillment,” “The ABCs of Life – Attitude, Belief and Commitment,” and other life-enhancing programs. As 2008 winds down, we reflect on how 1000 Women came into existence, first as an idea that evolved into our becoming a nonprofit corporation in the spring, to launching our website and blog in the summer, to recruiting Visionaries, to making our 501(c)(3) status official, to building global relationships in the fall, to initiating the pilot program (WRAP), and oh, so many other activities… so much in less than one year! Just imagine all the lives that we can impact in 2009! With donations from you and support for our programs – 1000 Women [Really] Can Change the World! All donations are fully tax deductible for this 501(c)(3) public charity. Much Thanks and appreciation to all of you who have donated money, time, ideas, support and in so many other ways… Paula to share their knowledge by creating audio information modules (AIM)… how to achieve the basic life and business skills that start to banish their poverty mentality and move them toward being able to live rather than merely exist.
