One Sky binge-watched a bunch of great TED Talks last night! Here's Cecile Richards at TED Women 2018 - On the political progress women have made, and what's next. @TEDTalks @TEDWomen ted.com/talks/cecile_richard…
How does empowering women and girls help fight climate change? Katherine Wilkinson from Project Drawdown has something to say about it: ted.com/talks/katharine_wilk…
When Erin Ganju of @echidnagiving came to speak with @OneSkyGiving about #girlseducation, she shared 9 tips on being a great donor: 1. Invest larger amounts in fewer organizations 2. Consider multi-year grants 3. Ask about their biggest challenges, help them break those barriers

4. Be clear and specific on reporting and communication requirements 5. Be understanding and ask clarifying questions re missed goals or objectives 6. Give unrestricted funding (choose organizations you trust enough to know that they know where the funding should go)
1
7. Make investments in first half of year if possible (so much funding is at the end of the year) 8. Tell NGOs early if you don’t plan to renew funding so they can plan 9. Make every effort to visit the work firsthand (especially internationally)
Thank you Erin Ganju of @EchidnaGiving for speaking with us! We loved learning from you about how to make a positive impact in girls education.

This #HumanTraffickingAwarenessDay we're thankful for the opportunity to work with our partner @Delta to create an awareness campaign for airline customers - reaching new audiences who may have heard of human trafficking, but didn't know how to spot it or what to do if they did.

Empowering women is a #DrawdownSolution to stop climate change. RT @dw_globalideas Only 1/4 of the people in Haiti have access to electricity. @EarthSparkIntl is bringing green energy to the country, and making it a feminist issue. p.dw.com/p/39vRB xitter.cf/dw_globalideas/status/…

When access to electricity is a feminist issue

Only about a quarter of Haitians have access to electricity. Nonprofit EarthSpark is bringing green energy to the country, and they're making it a feminist issue.
