Today marks International Women’s Day (IWD), a day to celebrate the strides women around the world have made to give all women the rights to work, vote, be trained, to hold public office and to end discrimination. Our foremothers rallied, held protests and sacrificed so we could have a better life today. Still, there are many women around the world who struggle to give birth to healthy babies, find food and shelter for their families, obtain education for their children, and enjoy the basic human rights that I am lucky to have. Today I honor them by donating to an international organization that helps women around the world. I know that my donation will have a huge impact on women who live on less than a dollar a day.
IWD is a national holiday in many countries, but not in the US. Make sure you call a loved one today and with them a Happy International Women’s Day!

One hour on Saturday night right before you got to bed!
