Executive Mamas Help Other Mamas
“Worldwide, women are at the greatest risk of being poor. Research and experience have also shown that women in poor countries are more likely to use their income for food, healthcare and education for their children, helping to lift entire communities out of poverty. However, women face unequal social and economic barriers that prevent them from earning a living and supporting their families.”—Women Thrive Website
There are women in this world who have very few choices. One billion people – one out of every six human beings – live in extreme poverty, struggling to survive on about $1 a day. The majority are women. One out of every three women worldwide will be physically, sexually or otherwise abused during her lifetime with rates reaching 70 percent in some countries. As an Executive Mama, you have a responsibility to other mamas. To inspire you to action, watch the Video Preview of Stone at http://bit.ly/KWWyX. And then do something. Join some of these executive mamas in making a difference for women.
On March 8, 2010, 100 women volunteers in Hegde Nagar, India, celebrated International Women’s Day by kicking off a Women Build Global Village.
On May 14, 2010, Lifetime Television honored Ritu Sharma, President and Co-Founder of Women Thrive Worldwide, as part of their series, Lifetime Celebrates Remarkable Women.
On June 16, 2010, Heifer International President Jo Luck today was named co-recipient of The World Food Prize—only the third woman to be so honored—for her work through Heifer to ensure availability and sustainability of food to people in need around the world.
