With and For Girls recognises extraordinary girl-led and girl-centred groups and organisations around the world through an annual awards process that offers flexible funding alongside opportunities for collaboration, mentorship, accompaniment and profile raising. It was set up in 2014 by the following donors: Comic Relief, FRIDA, MamaCash, Nike Foundation, NoVo Foundation, Plan International UK, Purposeful, Stars Foundation, and the Global Fund for Children. The Collective supports organisations with flexible funding through a girl-led selection process. We annually award up to 25 inspiring organisations with flexible funding.
