Women Moving Millions
8 December 2009 at 11:33 am
Women Moving Millions is a global philanthropy campaign to elevate women and girls to the top of the philanthropic list and to encourage investment in them with even greater commitment by women and men. The campaign is based on the theory that when women prosper, communities thrive; and when communities thrive, the world becomes a better place for everyone.
The campaign will be unveiled at a series of lunches in Melbourne and Sydney
· Tuesday 16th February in Melbourne
· Thursday 18th February in Sydney
The Australian Women Donors Network, Chaired by Eve Mahlab AO and Deputy-Chaired by Carol Schwartz AM, invite you to reserve your table for this historic lunch in February and to join the Women Donors network.
