Stories of Impact

Changing stories, one at a time.

Our name begins with changing stories — because every woman carries one worth honouring.

Why Stories

A story is evidence that it can be done.

Statistics persuade funders. Stories persuade the woman who is not yet sure she belongs in the room. Both matter, but only one of them changes what someone believes about themselves.

We are collecting these carefully, with consent, in the words of the people who lived them.

Stories are being gathered

We are collecting stories from our community with their consent, and will publish them here as they are ready. If you have been part of a programme and would like to share yours, we would be honoured to hear it.

How each story is told

How we handle stories

Every story is published with the explicit consent of the person it belongs to. We use a first name only unless someone asks us to use more. Nobody is identified, photographed or quoted without agreeing to it first.

If you have been part of a programme and would like to share your story, we would be honoured to hear it.
