We’ll be 100% transparent: Our goal with this email is to convince you to make a lifesaving gift to support women and girls worldwide.

We hope we can explain why your support of women and girls benefits everyone:

Violence against women and girls is one of the most widespread human rights violations in the world. About 1 in 3 women worldwide have been subjected to physical or sexual violence. UNFPA empowers women to leave unsafe environments by providing them with money, safe shelters, and information about violence. 

Reproductive rights are human rights, and everyone in society benefits when women can choose when to have a child. Studies show again and again that access to contraception and family planning improves the lives of everyone — which is why UNFPA provides millions of dollars in support to help women with pregnancy. 

Women are still at risk of dying while giving birth. When we invest in reproductive health, we can reduce maternal mortality and improve the health of newborn babies. Just $1 in family planning and maternal health can yield $8.40 in economic benefits.

Women and societies thrive when they have the freedom to make their own choices about their bodies and their futures — and that’s why your support of UNFPA is so impactful.

Every gift makes a difference for women and girls — expanding their access to critical care services, protecting their safety, and saving the lives of mothers and their children. Now that you know all of this, will you make a lifesaving contribution today?

Thank you for being there for women and girls,
