THE WILLOW FUND EVENT
Our annual WILLOW Fund Event brings together a panel of experts to raise awareness of the unique challenges refugee women and girls face during resettlement. Funds raised support targeted programming to help women and girls achieve wellness, safety, and employment.

Women and girls make up 50% of the refugee population, yet they often have the greatest challenges resettling because their unique needs go overlooked and their potential unrealized.

Refugee women often watch their children and spouses acclimate during resettlement through school and work while they become isolated, lonely, and disempowered. Targeted programming is needed to help women and girls achieve wellness, safety, and employment.
Established in 2023, the goal of the new WILLOW Fund is to improve refugee women and girls’ resettlement experiences through greater investment in their health, safety, and workforce advancement.
