A Community of Women for Change

"As we move into this phase we're calling a woman's nation, women can turn their pivotal role as wage-earners, as consumers, as bosses, as opinion-shapers, as co-equal partners in whatever we do into a potent force for change."
         - Maria Shriver

A Community of Women for Change logoIn the recently published Shriver Report: A Woman's Nation Changes Everything, Maria Shriver writes about the power that women wield as they join together as a nation.  We want to bring that spirit alive in Omaha.

The Women's Fund has created a movement to unite women into a potent force for positive change right here in our own community.  We are connecting individuals and organizations that share our vision of a city where every woman and girl has the opportunity to reach her full potential.
