This International Women’s Day, we celebrate 30 years of changing the rules.

Dear John,

It will take 286 years to reach global gender equality.

286 years to close the disparity across politics, work, health, education, access to justice and protection from violence and exploitation. Every step we take to lessen this gap is a victory, but it doesn’t negate the fact that we can’t wait 286 years for equality.

For too long, women and girls have been forced to accept laws that didn’t represent or protect them. That’s why at Equality Now, we change the rules.

We know that people working together can change the world. Since our founding in 1992, supporters like you have enabled Equality Now to:
* Amend or abolish over 60% of the sex-discriminatory laws we’ve highlighted in our work since 2000.
* Amend the definition of rape from force-based to consent-based in Mexico’s proposed sexual violence bill. We also helped change laws in Bolivia, Cuba, Kenya, Liberia, Nepal, and NY State.
* Secure the first-ever convictions under FGM laws in Burkina Faso, Egypt, Kenya, and Liberia.

Help us change the rules, donate now. ([link removed])

One week from now marks International Women’s Day, a global celebration of the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. So on International Women’s Day, in celebration of all Equality Now has accomplished and in support of how much further we have to go, please join us by making a donation on March 8.
