WiTH Lends a Hand for Giving Tuesday

For the Nov. 29 Giving Tuesday event, the annual, global generosity movement, Women in Technology Hollywood (WiTH) is passing along 100 percent of donations to a variety of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) programs.

Each year WiTH raises tens of thousands for charities, and the WiTH Foundation’s annual drive is close to meeting its goal of $75,000 raised for organizations that reflect the values of WiTH: diversity, equity, inclusion, accessibility and belonging.

Those organizations include:

Boundless Brilliance
Women’s Empowerment Institute
STEM Advantage
Codetalk
DIY Girls
PepUp Tech
STEAM:CODERS

For those interested in helping contribute, WiTH has set up a social media fundraising how-to page that allows users to adopt the WiTH Foundation in personal Facebook fundraiser, and includes resources to kick-off individual fundraisers.
