I’ve seen it.
I’ve done it.
I know this to be true:
When women invest in one another, it’s a win-win situation.
Guaranteed.
If you’re with me, girlfriends, take a gander:
The Women INvesting in Women INitiative (WIN-WIN) was created by the Calvert Foundation to raise $20 million to invest in organizations and projects that create opportunities for women around the world.

Tell me more …
According to the World Bank, investing in women is smart economics because there is a marvelous multiplier effect: when women benefit from economic gain, so do their families and communities. That is the driving force behind WIN-WIN.
In a nutshell, here’s how it works:
Invest:
Every dollar you invest with WIN-WIN goes directly to flexible and affordable loans for women.
Benefit:
You receive up to 2% interest on your investment while empowering women to succeed.
Donate:
Donate $100 to WIN-WIN, and your gift will be leveraged to create $500 in loans to organizations and projects in the WIN-WIN portfolio.
Benefit:
Your tax-deductible gift provides ongoing support as it is used over and over again to create opportunities for women around the world.
That’s what I call giving back.
