About Girls Who Invest 

Girls Who Invest is a non-profit organization dedicated to increasing gender diversity and inclusion in investment management with a focus on growing the pipeline of women entering the industry in frontline investing positions. They accomplish this through education, mentoring, internships, and a supportive community. The organization’s on-campus program enables college students to explore investment management careers through four weeks of education at top universities followed by a six-week paid internship at one of more than 100 leading investment management firms. Scholars unable to commit 10 weeks to the on-campus program can apply for Girls Who Invest’s four-month, fully subsidized, self-directed Online Intensive Program.

In addition, all scholars receive support and career guidance from a network of partners, mentors, and alumni. Girls Who Invest’s vision is for 30% of the world’s investable capital to be managed by women by 2030. For more information, visit girlswhoinvest.org.

About Women for Women International

Women for Women International works in some of the toughest places to be a woman. Since 1993, we have helped nearly 500,000 women survivors of war and conflict rebuild their lives. We’ve given them the tools and support to earn a living, save money, improve their health and wellbeing, influence decisions in their home, and build connections. 

In Afghanistan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Iraq, Kosovo, Nigeria, and Rwanda Women for Women International provides women with a 12-month social and economic training program and responds to the needs of refugees in Jordan, South Sudan, and Northern Uganda. Women for Women International also engages men locally to become allies in the promotion of women’s advancement and works with community leaders to advocate for women’s rights, health, and education. Together, these programs not only help women survive today, but also create sustainable change for the world tomorrow.
