Hmong Women Today creates opportunities for women to grow, lead and shine.
Since our launch in 2012, HWT has offered all of our events and services for free to the community (with the exception of the women retreat). We are not a nonprofit organization and we don’t have any grants or revenue. Nonetheless, HWT is able to fulfill its mission due to the support of families, friends and generous donors from our community. For this spirit, we invite you to be a champion for Hmong women by making a donation to help sustain our programs and events. We welcome all donation levels and thank you, in advance, for your contribution.
