What Women Help Women does

Women Help Women is a feminist non-profit organization that provides medical abortion pills, contraception, and counseling support services to individuals worldwide. The organization operates a telehealth consultation platform at consult.womenhelp.org where users complete online questionnaires, receive prescription review from licensed doctors, and have medicines shipped by mail globally. Services are available in 16+ languages with 16 hours/day online availability, supported by a distributed team of counselors, feminist activists, and doctors. The organization has served over 150,000 people with abortion medicines and answered more than 1 million emails across multiple languages.

The organization's core technology stack includes the Euki privacy-first period tracker mobile application (which stores all data locally on user devices without third-party tracking), the Abotech initiative for abortion technologies, and the SASS (Self-Managed Abortion; Safe & Supported) project providing US-specific information and support. The organization also operates several network initiatives including Abortion Without Borders (serving Poland and Europe), MAMA Network (Mobilizing Activists around Medical Abortion in Africa), and maintains partnerships with regional organizations across Latin America, Asia, and Oceania. All protocols are evidence-based and aligned with World Health Organization guidelines, reporting a 98% success rate for medical abortion in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.

The business model is entirely donation-based, with no service fees charged to users. Revenue derives from voluntary individual donations, with a suggested donation of 75 euros or more to the Women's Wallet fund supporting women-friendly projects. The organization does not have venture capital or private equity backing and operates as an independent non-profit. Its go-to-market approach is community-led, leveraging feminist activist networks and partner organizations worldwide for distribution and outreach. The primary customer segments are individuals seeking self-managed abortion services globally and partner organizations/activist networks that distribute information and provide localized support.

Peers

• Ibis Reproductive Health:

Direct peers

• safe2choose: safe2choose is an international nonprofit providing information and support for safe abortion choices via online consultation, directly overlapping with WHW's mission and target audience. It is actually listed as a WHW partner, indicating deep operational comparability.
• Aid Access: Aid Access is the most direct peer to WHW: it provides online consultation and mail delivery of abortion pills globally, with a strong focus on serving users in restrictive US states and Europe. Operated by physicians, it mirrors WHW's consult-and-mail model and self-managed abortion framing.
• Hey Jane: Hey Jane is a US-focused telehealth clinic providing medical abortion and contraception via online consultation and mail delivery. It directly competes with WHW's US SASS service for paid US users seeking medication abortion.
• carafem: carafem is a US reproductive health provider offering telehealth and in-person abortion and contraception services. It is comparable to WHW in the medical abortion telehealth segment, though WHW operates donation-based and globally while carafem is paid and US-focused.
• Plan C Pills: Plan C Pills is a research and information hub that maps US access to abortion pills online, including telehealth providers and mail-forwarding options. It serves a similar end-user audience as WHW's SASS project and plays a comparable referral and education role.

Broad incumbents

• International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF): IPPF is a global federation of national family planning organizations delivering reproductive health services across 100+ countries. It is comparable to WHW's global mission and reach, but with a much larger institutional footprint and broader service portfolio including contraception, maternal health, and abortion.
• Marie Stopes International (MSI Reproductive Choices): MSI is one of the world's largest reproductive health NGOs, providing contraception and abortion services across 35+ countries. It is comparable to WHW in mission and global service delivery but operates as a broad clinical incumbent with permanent clinic infrastructure.
• Planned Parenthood Federation of America: Planned Parenthood operates the world's largest network of reproductive health clinics and offers telehealth abortion services (e.g., Planned Parenthood Direct app). It is a broad incumbent in the same reproductive health category, with significantly larger scale and broader scope than WHW.
