OUR MISSION
Voices of Women is dedicated to educating ourselves and others on global issues and U.S. foreign policy. We believe that citizens – empowered with information and understanding – can advance the cause of non-military solutions to global conflicts. We believe that the voices of women must lead a worldwide campaign for peace. |
MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Voices of Women, presents programs that raise awareness of global issues. These range from dramatic theater productions to panel discussions, informative speakers, and documentary films We believe that the more we communicate the more we learn. And through learning we can make a difference. |

TAKING ACTION
All of our programs are informative, but we're not content just to hear about international hot spots. We have raised significant funds for organizations such as Save the Children, Women for Women International, the United Nations Association of San Diego, and Wheelchairs for Israel/Palestine. In addition, our contributions have enabled a woman peacemaker in Uganda to continue her work, bought school supplies in Afghanistan and supported a micro-credit program in India. If a specific U.S. foreign policy isn't leading to a peaceful solution, we contact our Congressional representatives, write letters to the editor, sign petitions, spread the word, and raise money for non-governmental organizations working in the area. |

RAISING MORE THAN AWARENESS
Voices of Women is committed to helping organizations around the world that are working to help women and children in dire conditions. Research shows that when the level of education for women has increased, the poverty level of the country decreases. We ask experts for advice, and then take appropriate action. We cannot do this alone and ask that you take the journey with us! |
