Jack,
Trump's sweeping rollback of women's global health programs—including slashing
USAID funding overnight—has led to deadly outcomes for millions of women and
girls worldwide, cutting off access to life-saving health services. Together
with the Fòs Feminista Alliance, you can rise to the occasion and combat this
egregious directive.

Urgent: Support Women's Rights

TAKE ACTION
<[link removed]>
Several of our partners and their life-saving health programs are suffering. A
new report has revealed the following impacts affecting vulnerable communities,
among many others:
* Over $9 million intended to expand HIV testing to marginalized populations
in Latin America has been canceled.
* An $800,000 project to expand HIV testing and treatment for young people in
Africa has been shuttered—cutting off critical care for those who need it most.
* A Fòs Feminista partner was forced to halt the signing of a $175,000
contract that would have improved the Dominican Republic’s justice system in
responding to gender-based violence in rural communities.
* In total, the Trump Administration’s actions have already led to an
estimated $13 million in funding being cut or frozen from Fòs Feminista
partners, forcing them to scale back or shut down critical programs.
The impacts don’t stop there. The Trump Administration reinstated the Global
Gag Rule, withdrew the United States from the World Health Organization, and
expanded the "Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance" policy, extending
anti-abortion restrictions to nearly all U.S. global health funding. Fòs
Feminista’s alliance of partners is rallying to the cause and needs your
support. We’re mobilizing to counter the devastating impact of funding cuts to
reproductive health programs by:
* Ensuring continuity of care by providing essential sexual and reproductive
health supplies through our global network
* Training our partners in the Global South to advocate for government
investment in sexual and reproductive health
* Fostering financial resilience among our partners by developing sustainable
funding models
While the cuts are being challenged in court, it remains unclear whether or
when lost funding will be restored. The reality is that the damage has already
been done, and millions of women and girls can’t wait.
It has never been more urgent to invest in the sustainability of grassroots
feminist organizations on the front lines of protecting women’s rights and
reproductive justice.
Add your name to fight with Fòs Feminista and our partners in defending
health, rights, and justice for all.
