Why Women’s Health Research? Because Half the World Deserves More than 2% funding.
Did you know women only officially started being included in U.S. clinical trials in 1993? Yep — that’s the year Jurassic Park came out. For decades before that, women’s bodies were treated as an afterthought in science. And even now, only 8.8% of the National Institutes of Health budget goes toward women’s health research.
That means lifesaving insights about diseases that disproportionately affect women — from endometriosis to heart disease — are still underfunded, understudied, and misunderstood.
Our ongoing fundraising campaign is in support of Karanda Mission Hospital in rural Zimbabwe. The hospital is doing incredible work in preventive care and gynecologic cancer treatment, and has innovatively incorporated mobile clinics to reach rural communities. Through this campaign, we’ll fund clean water systems, diagnostic kits, gynecologic screening tools, and training for community health professionals, all while strengthening community ties for our future research. It’s about turning awareness into measurable impact for women’s health.
This isn’t just about fairness. It’s about better science, smarter healthcare, and saving lives. When women are included, everyone benefits.
