We are inspired by Mary Ward to work towards equal education and employment opportunities for women and girls across the globe, transforming communities and creating a just and equitable society.
We work with local partners and communities to support programs that transform access to education and jobs for women and girls all around the world.
How we help
By supporting communities to improve education and employment opportunities for women and girls, we’re building the foundations for an equitable society.
What sets us apart
We’re guided by the legacy of Mary Ward and generations of Loreto leaders in their unwavering belief that strong women equal strong communities.
Invest in women to help alleviate poverty and injustice
Girls and women deserve the chance to make a positive impact in our world, wherever they live. Our partners, networks and local communities work to transform access to education and jobs so that women and girls can live with dignity, achieve their goals, and contribute to decisions about their lives. We believe that’s worth supporting.
From education initiatives to economic and community-led empowerment programs, we’re working with our partners, networks and local communities to build a brighter future for us all.
Education
Education is the cornerstone for women’s empowerment and gender equality. Access to education means girls and women can make choices and decisions about their future and be active members of their communities.
When girls and women have the financial and legal knowledge to make genuine choices about their lives and generate income, they’re able to fully and equally participate in all areas of life.
Strong women equal strong communities, and strong communities amplify their voices through advocacy, enabling them to assert their rights, influence decisions, and drive meaningful change.
