Build Back Stronger 2023
This March — Women’s History Month — progressive supporters are running, walking, biking (and more!) their way to raising $40,000 to elect phenomenal and pro-choice women to state legislatures across the country.
Build Back Stronger kicked off Sunday, February 26th with a message from actress Jamie Lee Curtis and a welcome from Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs, who we are so grateful took the time to join us.
These athletes need your help getting active and raising money for deserving, qualified women leaders across the country. Consider supporting one of the four Build Back Stronger teams competing by donating to the links below.
Event Spotlight: Fund Her's Anniversary Celebration
On November 3rd, Fund Her celebrated 5 years of putting progressive women at the helm. New and old friends of Fund Her came together in San Francisco to honor both the midterm election season and Fund Her's hardwork these past 5 years.
The program included:
-
An Opening Keynote by California's First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom
-
A discussion between Aimee Allison, Founder and President of She The People, and Steve Phillips, bestselling author and national political commentator, about Steve's new book How We Win the Civil War.
-
Remarks from current and past Fund Her endorsed candidates (and recent winners) including incoming Senator Aisha Wahab and incoming Asm. Liz Ortega
Event Spotlight: Meta & Kyle's "Putting Women at the Helm"
In September, Kyle and Meta Valentic teamed up with Fund Her as part of our Team Captain Program to host a team captain fundraising event.
Over 20 friends of Fund Her joined Kyle and Meta at their home to support progressive women candidates that are running for office this fall and stand for our values. Kyle and Meta also welcomed Emmy-nominated writer, director, and producer Jill Demby Guest (and treasured Fund Her Board member) to speak during the event.
In one afternoon, this phenomenal group raised over $4,500 on behalf of Fund Her. That’s approximately the maximum individual donation for one legislative candidate in California and makes a huge difference in a campaign.
If you’d like to get involved by hosting a Team Captain event of your own, get more information in the section below.

Team Captains can work with the Fund Her team to coordinate a program that involves a Fund Her Board Member and/or a woman we've helped elect. We encourage Team Captains to be creative and make the event personal, engaging and fun.
become a monthly donor
Our monthly donors understand that our work never stops. It's this support that best allows us to project how many women we can support and how many states we can be in.
Studies show that women pass twice as many laws as men do and are more likely than their male counterparts to legislate on issues we care about—issues like healthcare, education, and poverty. Yet, although women make up over 50% of the population,
they are but only 30% of state legislators legislatures nationwide.
Our movement to elect more progressive women is powered by you, our supporters,
and a contribution of any amount helps us continue doing this important work,
reaching gender parity in the California Legislature by 2028 and flipping legislatures
across the country.
