The United Nations Women’s Guild-Geneva (UNWG-Geneva) is a charity organisation assisting women and children in need throughout the world. The UNWG also serves as a circle of friendship where women from more than hundred countries connected to the United Nations Office and other International Organisations in Geneva share opportunities for fundraising, volunteering and activities.
It is an honour and a privilege for me to serve as President of the UNWG. What I wish for above all, is for us to engage for positive change and never to forget that our strength resides in our diversity. Together, we will continue to strive to create an environment in which our members feel respected, accepted, supported and valued.
We are a non-profit organization and one of our purposes is to assist children in need throughout the world. We believe that every child deserves a future and this belief is at the heart of everything we do. We organize many social and culture activities, but fundraising is what we do best. Charities nurture, repair, build and sustain our society and our International Annual Bazaar is one of the foremost charitable events in Geneva. Let us work together to make sure that our visibility and our actions continue to take centre stage.
