Downtown Women's Center’s Post

We believe in celebrating women every day, but especially on International Women's Day! We've come a long way but the fight for equality continues. The statistics in NY are sobering: - Mothers are paid just 58 cents for every dollar paid to working dads - Only 19% of Venture Capital funding goes to Women That's why Women.NYC was founded: We empower women to dream big and break barriers. Since our launch, we've helped thousands build substantive networks, get access to valuable resources and become the leaders they were meant to be. Check out this short explainer video and discover how Women.NYC can help YOU reach your full potential! Let's rewrite the future, together.
