Catalyst Fund
The Catalyst Fund was created in 2023 to ensure our work’s long-term sustainability.
Lauren and Austin Fite created the Catalyst Fund to provide the Global Women’s Institute ( GWI) with the flexible financial support we need to pursue our mission to end violence against women and girls through research and partnerships that share power and shape policy.
With the support of the Catalyst Fund, our most important work can move forward without delay. We can pursue critical opportunities as they arise, building our responses to complement our ongoing, grant-supported initiatives.
The Fites are committed to promoting meaningful change on global issues and in the lives of individual women and girls. The Catalyst Fund merges their philanthropic commitment with GWI’s mission, so that together we can advance gender equality and work to end violence against women and girls worldwide.
Building on the Fites’ generosity in establishing the Catalyst Fund, we now welcome the opportunity to grow it with you – our supporters.
