Gulf Coast Chapter - About Us

Founded in 1993, the Gulf Coast Chapter is one of the largest U.S. National Committee Chapters. Through the volunteer work of out dedicated members, the Gulf Coast Chapter raises community awareness and funds for UN Women by:

• presenting informative programs and entertaining events highlighting the status and successes of women and girls here and abroad;
• providing speakers to community organizations throughout the Gulf Coast; and mentoring the next generation of informed and empowered women through our Learners to Leaders program.

At any given moment, there are some 150 projects receiving support from UN Women.   With the generous support of governments, foundations, corporations, organizations, and individuals, historic victories for women's empowerment and gender equity have been - and continue to be - achieved.
