Read this book, take heart, and pass it on!"" Gloria Steinem, Writer, Activist, and Feminist Organizer ""My work as Executive Director of UN Women and UN Under-Secretary-General taught me that activism without money falls short of implementation.

Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, Former United Nations Under-Secretary-General and Executive Director of UN Women ""Every person involved in philanthropy should read this book to truly understand the partnership of philanthropists and activists around the world in making radical and upending change. Change that puts justice at the center of how communities survive and thrive."" Lori Barra, Executive Director, The Isabel Allende Foundation ""By capturing the stories of the women’s funding movement over the past fifty years, this book invites us to think more expansively about what is possible when philanthropy gets serious about resourcing the movements working on issues that affect the lives of women and their communities. It is a historical reminder of what can be done for anyone seeking to boldly shift how to fund feminist movements so communities can thrive."" Teresa C. Younger, President and CEO, Ms. Foundation for Women ""Women have been philanthropic actors and activists in the truest sense of those words for generations - in every part of the globe. Yet such philanthropy continues to be under acknowledged at best. This book tells the important stories of the activism and impact of women's funds across the world in support of feminist and justice movements. Shine that light!""

Pat Mitchell, Co-Founder of ConnectedWomenLeaders and Project Dandelion, and author of Becoming a Dangerous Woman: Embracing Risk to Change The World ""Women’s funds understood long ago that real change can happen when intersectional feminist movements are sustained, connected, and trusted to lead the way and define what success looks like. This is an urgent lesson for philanthropy at large that is explored in this book."" Giselle Carino, Founding CEO of Fòs Feminista ""I witnessed brave women catapult the global women's funding movement into a new era. This book, akin to a financial Wonder Woman, testifies to women's power to use money for equity and justice. It inspires boldness and bravery, deeply rooted in listening and co-creation.

Lisa Witter, CEO, Apolitical Foundation and Co-Founder, Apolitical ""Finally, a book that covers, with great care, the history, impact and stunning success of the global women’s funding movement. Sharing stories of the amazing work of these changemakers is inspiring and will serve as a clarion call to keep the movement strong.

This book is a must-read for anyone committed to building a new philanthropy; a new way of connecting generosity to the opportunity to make a difference. At the center of re-imagining philanthropy must be a woman's wisdom that integrates intersectionality, collaboration and transparency and this is the blueprint."" Dr. Wanjiru Kamau-Rutenberg, Founder & Executive Director, Black Women in Executive Leadership (B-WEL) ""Women and girls matter, and yet if you look at the philanthropic funding that goes to this half of the population you would not know it.

Tuti Scott, Coach and Facilitator, Changemaker Strategies" Author InformationThe Uprising of Women in Philanthropy is written in a collective voice and is also, we believe, an important human rights document. It offers a roadmap to achieve a thriving democracy. This book marks the first time that women’s rights philanthropists have united, in book form and in one voice, to call for massive investments in women’s rights for social justice change. The Uprising of Women in Philanthropy will be an important addition to the works of the few, but highly influential, feminist collective authorships.
