2022 CHIME FOR CHANGE PARTNERS

Since 2013, CHIME FOR CHANGE has directly supported more than 630,000 women and girls through more than 180 nonprofit partners and women-led grassroots organizations. CHIME FOR CHANGE is pleased to continue critical funding to longstanding nonprofit partners working to drive progress towards a gender-equal future through local programs around the world, including in Brazil, Ghana, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Mexico, the Middle East and North Africa region, and the Southern region of the United States. This core funding is in addition to Gucci and CHIME FOR CHANGE’s direct support of diverse feminist organizations, movements, and activists earlier this year, including Women Enabled International, Young Feminist Europe, and Outright Action International.

CHIME FOR CHANGE’s grants continue to advance Gucci’s five-year commitment to UN Women's Generation Equality Action Coalitions to apply intersectional approaches; support community-led and trust-based giving focusing on the next generation of activists; and provide direct, flexible funding to feminist movements and leaders around the world.
