Help 7 Matènwa Women Stay in University

Don’t let costs like housing, meals, books, and transportation force them to leave school. Our goal: fully fund all seven by March 31.

What Your Support Covers

A tuition scholarship gets them into the classroom—but it doesn't cover the cost of staying there. Your gift to the Women’s Leadership Fund bridges the gap for:

  • Safe Housing: A stable home near the university on the mainland.

  • Daily Nutrition: Reliable meals so they can focus on exams, not hunger.

  • Essential Tools: Laptops, textbooks, and supplies for Nursing,  Agronomy, and Veterinary Medicine.

  • Reliable Transport: Safe passage from Lagonav Island to their place of study.

Whether you give once or monthly, 100% of your gift goes directly to these 7 women.
