We are excited to share that we have been selected as one of 15 organizations to receive a featured grant from Together Women Rise in 2024! With hundreds of local chapters spanning the United States, Together Women Rise is made up of women on a mission to cultivate the collective power of community to achieve global gender equality.
As one of their July featured grantees, Together Women Rise’s support will enable our Colegio Horizontes students to continue their education, realize their full potential, and become champions for gender equality.
This is our second grant from Together Women Rise, and we are incredibly grateful for their support and partnership. A group of Together Women Rise members will be visiting us in April and we are excited to share stories, photos and reflections from their time in Chajul.
As a member of a local Together Women Rise chapter in Santa Cruz, California, Founder and Executive Director Katio Morrow shares:
As a long term Together Women Rise member, I could not be prouder for our organization to receive our second grant from Together Women Rise and be a part of your July programming. I was so excited to tell the members of four of the chapters that I am closely involved with. As we are building, training, and expanding to our new high school, this grant will support numerous needs of the new expansion to support the educational dreams of our indigenous girls. Hooray!
