Five things we learned from feminists about giving

By Renata Saavedra and Vanessa Lucena

We were lucky enough to get to know the world of philanthropy from a very special point of view: the women's fund ecosystem.

The previous year, a small campaign had taken place at the now-defunct NGO Fair. At the same time, ABCR was in contact with 92nd Y, the American community center where GivingTuesday was born.
