Find the official DFW Page at www.facebook.com/DiningforWomen Dining for Women is an 8,000-member giving circle that powerfully helps lift women and girls across the world out of extreme poverty with an ingenious potluck model that has captivated people across the U.S, and increasingly, the world. DFW consists of chapters that meet for a potluck gathering at least four times a year---many chapters
choose to meet each month. The chapters learn about the most urgent issues affecting women and girls living in extreme poverty worldwide, including illiteracy, health care, s*x trafficking, water and food security, education, human rights, economic self-sufficiency, and many other challenges. Chapter members then donate to the DFW-designated monthly organizations that address these urgent issues, knowing our collaborative gifts make more of an impact than our individual gifts. Ninety percent of all contributions go directly to our selected international programs, with 10 percent allocated to DFW. DFW now has 250 chapters across the United States and in some overseas countries. You can see where chapters are located on our online site map. We have raised more than $1.5 million since our creation in 2003. If you visit our site, you also can see some of our success stories, impacts and some of the women and girls we've helped over the years.
