I got this request today on Facebook and it was from a high school friend (do you still keep up with your high school friends?):
Will you go to http://apps.facebook.com/chasecommunitygiving/charities/263954097-womens-world-health-initiative and vote for WWHI, the non-profit I volunteer with? It's for $20,000 from Chase and it would help us so much.
Support the
WOMENS WORLD HEALTH INITIATIVE
through the Chase Community Giving Project. Here's a snippet about the WWHI:
We provide women with the most basic human right – life – by giving
women in the most
vulnerable populations access to basic healthcare and means to
contribute to their own
well being.
What we do......
» Train local women as midwives to build sustainable, local health
care systems.
» Increase access to quality care through technology innovation.
» Train local doctors’ to provide emergency, life-saving care.
» Integrate economic incentives with interventions so as to increase
sustainability.
By integrating medical care with economic viability and incentives,
Women’s World Health
Initiative has found an unique and effective way of empowering women
within their own
context and communities.
