JOhn,

On this special day, the world comes together to celebrate women across the globe – women of every nationality and walk of life. We shine the spotlight on women like Elizabeth who are striving each day to lift up not only their own families, but their entire communities. In case you missed it, her story is below. 

Today, on International Women’s Day, will you donate to ensure we can continue to provide nutritional support, agricultural training, maternal healthcare and more to women in Asia, Africa, Central America and the Caribbean?

Thank you for joining us,

Subject: Find Out How Mushroom Farming is Changing Women's Lives

Dear Hunger Champion,

Elizabeth, 52, helps to lead a mushroom livelihood program, working alongside other mothers to grow mushrooms and use the harvest to make mushroom chips. They package and sell the chips to visitors and nearby schools, dividing the income amongst themselves to support their families. “In this past two months, [we have earned] approximately 20 or 18,000 pesos,” Elizabeth said. 

By donating in celebration of International Women’s Day you can not only further the work Elizabeth is doing in the Philippines, but empower more mothers like her to earn livelihoods to support their families for years to come.

Thank you for joining us,
