Women Together Global

What Women Together Global does

Women Together Global is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (Tax ID 88-1027709), founded in 2018 by Dr. Anu Anandaraja, a physician and public health specialist. Headquartered at PO Box 250282, New York, NY, the organization operates programs across four geographies—Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia, and New Mexico—through grassroots partnerships with women at the community level. The organization runs four interconnected core programs: Women in Business (cooperative enterprise development, with 35 women-led small businesses and 19 climate-smart cooperative farms launched since 2018 and over 350 women trained in business management and financial literacy); Girls Growing Together (girls' education, mentorship, menstrual hygiene support, and vocational training, with 235 girls enrolled in 2024–2025); Women and Environment (production of over 4,000 clean-burning cookstoves, 197 women trained in alternative fuel production, eco-charcoal, and briquettes from wastepaper and sawdust); and Women and Land (securing land access for women and spreading climate-smart agriculture).

The organization's "technology" is a community-driven partnership model rather than a software platform; the technical components are largely physical product processes (cookstove fabrication, briquette compression, fuel-efficient stove design reducing firewood use by approximately 60%) and human-delivered training curricula (tailoring, baking, jewelry-making, digital skills, financial literacy, climate-smart farming). Distribution occurs through direct grassroots community partnerships, vocational training centers, girls' afterschool and community clubs, and an experiential learning exchange travel program.

The revenue model is entirely donation-based. The organization accepts one-time, monthly, quarterly, and annual donations via its website, with designated giving options across the four program areas plus a General Fund. Pricing tiers are micro-level ($25, $50, $100, or custom amounts), alongside program-level unit costs (e.g., $150 for a semester of high school fees, $200 for a sewing machine, $1,000 to launch a women-led climate-smart farm). The team consists of 7 employees plus a broader network of coordinators, facilitators, trainers, and volunteers across Africa and the U.S., and the organization is governed by a board of directors including the founder.
