The Well Initiative
“Girl, We Got Your Back" Fund
You’re doing the work and carrying the load—when was the last time you gave yourself a break? According to a study by Catalyst, 60% of women hesitate to ask for help due to fear of judgment or pride, while NIMH reports that 48% of women experience burnout and
1in 5 face mental health challenges.
​
The Well Initiative’s Girl, We Got Your Back Fund is here to change that—because taking care of yourself isn’t selfish, it’s necessary. This fund is here so you can rest, recharge, and have your needs supported. We offer not only a chance to take a break but also financial assistance, guidance, and community support to come back stronger.
​
We invite you to be a part of something BIG. Your contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. Let's work together to achieve our goal of gathering at least 100,000 women from around the globe, each giving $12 annually (that's only $1 a month!), to support the fundamental right for every woman to prioritize her overall well-being without guilt.
