The Women of Benevolence

Global Campaign for Women's Humanitarian Work

The numbers affirm that women constitute half of society, and history demonstrates that their role and development throughout the ages have been crucial to the prosperity of communities and the leadership of nations. However, humanity has only tapped into a small fraction of women's capabilities worldwide in various fields and domains.

Amid the crises faced by the world, as people struggle under their weight, the positive role of women in charitable and humanitarian work remains essential. It is a decisive element that requires opening broader horizons and wider spaces for women to contribute what the world deserves from them through institutions carrying noble messages, clear objectives, and defined mechanisms. These institutions believe in partnership, excel in organizational work, and ensure the sustainability of their efforts to serve all of humanity.

On the occasion of the International Day of Humanitarian Work, "Hurrem Sultan Endowment " aims to launch a global campaign entitled "Women of Benevolence." This campaign will be in partnership and collaboration with humanitarian organizations around the world to promote the role of women in aiding and alleviating the suffering of communities. It will highlight their contributions in this field, the challenges they have faced and continue to face, and how their roles can be expanded to benefit humanity, make a difference, inspire more women to engage in this area and contribute to promoting goodness.
