Community Matters with Scott Cordischi featuring the Women's Fund of RI with Kelly Nevins 3-8-25

  • Resumen

  • We're celebrating women and women's history with The Women's Fund of Rhode Island and our guest Kelly Nevins, CEO. "In 2001, the Rhode Island Foundation, together with founder Simone Joyaux, established a fund specifically for women and girls in Rhode Island. Women's Fund of Rhode Island (WFRI) invests in women and girls through research, advocacy, grant making and strategic partnerships designed to achieve gender equity through systemic change". In 2025, the United States ranks 43rd globally on the World Economic Forum's gender parity index, a significant drop from its 27th position in 2023, with the global gap expected to take 134 years to close. Listen as Kelly details the priorities and policies they're implementing to close the gender gap. You can join in celebration during Women's History Month, on March 9 from 2-5 at Providence Public Library for the "Diva Empowerment Concert", an inspiring afternoon celebrating the power and resilience of women through song. WFRI would be grateful for your support year round, including the upcoming "401 Gives" drive. There's also a collaboration with the Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England (GSSNE), as they release the The Rhode Island Girls Report on how girls in RI are faring. Fortunately, in RI men are stepping up to help the campaign with "100 Men for Gender Equality".
