DOUBLE Your Impact on Global Partners: Now up to $300,000!
Thanks to the generosity of people like you, our Global Partners initiative supports nineteen organizations working in their local communities to expand access to family planning options and reproductive health care, to remove barriers to girls’ education, and to conserve local natural resources through an integrated “population, health, environment” (PHE) approach.
