Early investors in Global Fund for Women: Bill Hewlett, David Packard, Esther and Walter Hewlett. These were people who understood that you could take a risk, call a small organization getting started in a kitchen the -global- fund for women, and hope that something might actually happen. In the first year, the Global Fund for Women gave away $34,000 in eight grants to women’s groups in different parts of the world.
