Powered by United Way of Rhode Island, 401Gives brings people together to make a difference for local nonprofits that deliver vital services to our communities throughout the state.
The Womxn Project’s Education Fund is thrilled to be part of this exciting initiative. In fact, we have set a very ambitious goal of raising $10,000 — and we have a matching donor.
Every dollar you donate up to $2,500 will be matched. So jump on and give today or be part of the official event kicking off at 6am on Friday, April 1st. Either way WE NEED YOU to be in this with us!
