Question about charity for women

[SciFiScream]

If there was a charity that was willing to focus on sex (female). Do you think that would be an attractive feature to donors?

Without a shadow of a doubt. I donate to nia, where Karen Ingala-Smith is CEO. nia know what a woman is.

It is for me. But these days I want to know if they mean the xx type of female (not against trans women but in certain circumstances, not all, it is important to seperate).

Agreed @Binglebong

That's why I went for nia for my women's charity. They don't support males in their female only spaces or refuges. Neither do they employ males.

I'll check it out, thanks.

FiLiA is women only, they do fantastic work fighting for women on all issues across the world.

I'm looking for evidence. I'm mentoring a charity to be brave and focus on XX only. Perhaps even providing support for female detransitioners (as there is very little)

Staff and trustees are understandably nervous but willing to discuss and learn more.

Is it worth checking the Charty commission's website to see how earnings have dropped where big charities have publicly said they don't know what women are? It will depend if accounts have been finished and if what they said was long enough ago.

Could you suggest they focus on those assigned (yes I know...) female at birth regardless of how they identify? So women and trans men. Making it transinclusive.

titchy that's already my plan. I've also developed a second part to the plan to further protect them from reputational risk.

They need to know they will successfully raise income. I've demonstrated that many of the gardens we dig in have grown well so there is potential.

They really only need around 600 monthly donors at £5 a month to give them the security they need.

Though would need much more to deliver their aims but regular donations would go so far in helping them.

The problem is what we say will be anecdotal, it's very hard to prove. Personally I cannot afford to do a regular donation to anywhere, no matter how worthy. I just do one offs.

I would donate a monthly amount to a charity that focussed on women and girls, and I imagine others would.

Always true but there are ways of gathering data. It's easy enough to produce an online survery and spread it as far as possible. As long as you share it here and some of the other locations feminists hang out it will get the answers you want.

Leave it open for a couple of weeks and promote it heavily through the charities own SM. Make it balanced and carefully worded.

Once it's been on here a day or so it will get booted to petitions or similar but if you PM me I'll chuck it into a few relevant threads, I'm sure others will do the same. The weight of numbers on here means you won't need much to get quite a lot of responses.

donquixotedelamancha that's a brilliant idea. I don't know where to start or how to frame the questions. I do know the trustees and staff would be very nervous about a survey like this being associated with the charity name.

Is there a way to do a completely anonymous survey without linking it to the charity name?

SurveyMonkey will let you do a basic survey anonymously and free of charge.
If its too problematic to make the whole charity focus on women, run a specific campaign, maybe for a month or for a special occasion and see how that goes.
