Expected outcome

After graduating with a degree in Biology from AUW, I returned to my community in Nepal. Unable to comply with the discriminatory and patriarchal norms there, I instinctively chose to work for social reformation. I am leading a partnership project between AUW and Nepal Jesuit Social Institute to recruit 15 girls from high trafficking-prone regions of Nepal to study at AUW through Pathways for Promise.— Christina Tamang | Nepal | Class of 2017

When a woman is educated, it is not only an individual that feels the results. Families, villages, cities, and nations are positively effected by a woman’s education and the choices she makes as a product of that opportunity.

Since 2008, we have provided exceptional higher education to over 1,500 current students and alumnae. Like Christina, 75 percent of graduates return to their home countries to make visible impact in their communities. The other 25 percent are empowered to continue their education at internationally-recognized graduate schools. Wherever they are, AUW graduates can be found at the forefront of change in their communities.

 

You, too, can contribute to the ripple effects of women’s education. Join us in this mission of education and empowerment by donating to a student’s scholarship today. Your contribution to tuition, school supplies, academic facilities, or program costs allows us to continue providing excellent higher education to women who would otherwise not be able to afford such a transformative opportunity.
