Women for water Supports Global Grassroots in Rwanda

women for water Supports Global Grassroots in Rwanda

women for water is supporting Global Grassroots, an organization dedicated to advancing gender equity in Rwanda. Together, we are mobilizing women-led water ventures to transform communities through clean water access, while addressing violence, equity, and COVID-19.

In response to COVID-19 in Rwanda, Global Grassroots installed ten temporary handwashing stations near water points, distributed soap-making supplies to over 8,200 people, and conducted hygiene training on handwashing and COVID-19 prevention to keep community members safe and healthy.

UN Women's 10th Anniversary

Dear Friends,

10 years ago, on 2nd July 2010, the UN General Assembly voted to establish UN Women to accelerate progress in meeting the needs of women and girls worldwide. Given the current COVID-19 realities and the unprecedented times we are in, we have decided to keep the marking of our anniversary low-key, with more opportunities for commemoration next year.

However, we would be very grateful for any virtual Birthday messages on Social Media, either from your principal or from your organizational accounts.

Here are a few sample Tweets and the links for the corresponding social media assets. Please feel free to use the below, or send us your own unique messages:
