Giving Tuesday: Amplify the Voices of Service Women

Support Our Heroes: Past, Present, and Future

Today, we stand with a staggering 350,000 service women and an incredible 2 million women veterans in the United States – a record number. From the American Revolution onwards, women have courageously served in every conflict, playing a pivotal role in securing our nation. Yet, despite their indispensable contributions, they often encounter barriers – during their service and afterward, when seeking the VA benefits they rightfully earned.

Be Their Voice: Support SWAN

The Service Women’s Action Network (SWAN) is more than just an organization; it is the collective voice for all military women, echoing their concerns, aspirations, and achievements. Created by the service women, for the service women, SWAN is a powerful community that staunchly advocates for their unique needs.

Why SWAN?

• Member-Driven: Guided by thousands, including service members and civilians, men and women alike.
• Inclusive: Advocating for every service woman and veteran, no matter the rank, branch, or years served.
• Distinct: The only organization specifically addressing the needs of both service women and women veterans. In a nation with over 40,000 nonprofits serving veterans and military personnel, our focus sets us apart.

Our Mission, Their Future

We dream of a world where every service woman receives the respect, benefits, protections, and opportunities they so deserve. We envision them having every resource at their fingertips, ensuring they reach their zenith of personal and professional success.

Championing Change Since 2007

While there are numerous programs aiding our veterans, most inadvertently cater primarily to men. SWAN is here to shift that narrative. We've been instrumental in bringing pivotal changes - from ensuring all military roles are open to women and broadening reproductive healthcare services to strengthening the military justice system and supporting victims of military sexual trauma.

But the journey isn't over.

This Giving Tuesday, Stand with SWAN

Join us in our mission to reshape the landscape for military women. Together, we can ensure that their voices are not just heard, but acted upon.
