Global Fund for Widows DC Office

The Global Fund for Widows is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering widows and female heads of households to overcome poverty through skills-based training, job creation, and micro-finance.

Ultimately, our goal is to help widows achieve financial stability, self-sufficiency, and importantly, become a role model within her family and community. The Global Fund for Widows applies its programs throughout the developing world by forming strategic partnerships with local NGOs, who are dedicated to the empowerment of widows. These local NGOs work in close collaboration with the Global Fund for Widows to develop unique solutions that are culturally and socially appropriate, and sustainable.
