Today is Giving Tuesday. Your inbox is full of requests. How does Take The Lead earn your donation

  • By sticking with our mission of gender parity in leadership, power, and pay regardless of pressures to change or not use the words “woman," “diversity,” or “gender.” 

  • By providing women with the leadership training, coaching, role models, thought leadership, and community they need to build strong careers and lives.

  • By understanding this truth written by Wendy Farrell, a new member of Take The Lead's 50 Women Can Lead the Change Arizona: 

    • “[R]ights can be won and eroded. Progress can move forward and backward. The door [the suffragists] forced open is still one we must actively hold. So when I say, There is still work to be done…We are still living in a time when women’s voices, bodies, autonomy, leadership, safety, earning power, and influence are contested.”  

      Read Wendy’s full article, “Suffs and Thoughts: When History Becomes Urgent,” here.  And  please make a generous Giving Tuesday contribution, knowing it will be matched 2X by others who share your belief in this cause.
