When She Gains, We All Gain

Give to Gain: Your gift this International Women’s Day is matched up to $50,000. See how one investment changes everything.
At P&G, many of us experienced what it felt like when someone believed in our potential. We were coached, challenged, and trusted. It changed our trajectory.
That belief is at the heart of this year’s P&G Alumni Foundation campaign. And Sylvia is living proof of what happens when it takes root.
Meet Sylvia.
After the COVID-19 pandemic, Sylvia was recovering from severe injuries caused by domestic violence. Her wounds were still healing yet she chose to serve.
Through Spotlight on Africa, a Grant Award winner supported by Alumni Grant Champion Will Treasure, Sylvia volunteered as a Community Health Promoter, helping her village access healthcare and education when it was needed most: “Helping others gave me hope again.”
Through small but powerful investments, including orange and lemon trees and a nanny goat, Sylvia rebuilt stability. Her nanny goat has since had twins, and the milk and income they provide have helped her extend that same stability to others. Today, she teaches neighboring farmers improved techniques, supports two orphaned girls, and dreams of sending her son to school. That is the multiplier effect of Give to Gain.
Your gift is matched. Deadline: April 30.
This Women’s History Month, the P&G Fund for Gender Equality will match donations up to $50,000 through the end of April. Consider giving $100.
When she gains stability, her children gain opportunity. Her community gains leadership. And together, we build a more resilient world.
