This year JAWS celebrated 40 years of empowering women journalists, educators and students. As freedom of the press is challenged, JAWS remains committed to defending those freedoms and providing resources for journalists to navigate our current landscape.

A free and unhindered press is essential, and that's why your support is needed during this season of change and uncertainty. If you're able to give, your generosity will help JAWS continue to be a safety network for women journalists across the country.

Our JAWS board members listed here have shared their stories and experiences with JAWS. Feel free to donate or share using an individual campaign and help us keep the conversation going.

Want to give monthly to JAWS? Even a simple pledge of $5, $15, or $25 per month can make a significant impact. Sign up here today to get started on your giving plan, and thank you for supporting us.

Will you support the future of women journalists through JAWS?

Your support helps JAWS share resources, support, training and information about issues that affect women in our field.
