Congratulations to WGF partners @usendfgmnetwork and Global Platform for Action to End FGM/C for their successful convening to #EndFGM. This global issue requires global action—and demands much more funding. All women and girls deserve to live free from FGM. Follow the U.S. End FGM Network for updates!

Our investing is mission-aligned, meaning we intentionally invest in transformative social and environmental change rather than destructive industries like #FossilFuels. This makes a positive impact and we see excellent returns.
