Our Sub Funds

Our Sub Funds honour people who have made a valuable contribution to the lives of women and girls or in memory of special people whose own lives were remarkable in what they achieved.

Donations to Sub Funds are a strategic investment in women and girls and will contribute to improving their lives today and in the future.

Currently, we have thirteen Sub Funds and the number is growing every year. Each is designed with specific purposes to advance conditions for women and girls and to provide benefits in a range of ways.
