Programs Supported by Your Donations
For this year’s PA OH Gives campaign, The Warrior in Her will expand upon our ‘What Makes a Warrior’ initiative by creating opportunities for women to share their stories, raise awareness, and advocate for others facing physical, mental, and emotional health challenges.
Potential donations will directly support the development of a new podcasting and storytelling space equipped with recording equipment and technology that will allow women in our community to safely share their experiences, journeys, and voices through podcast episodes, interviews, educational discussions, and advocacy-focused content.
This project will complement our existing Warrior Advocate, wellness, and support programming by helping women feel seen, heard, empowered, and connected while also increasing community awareness surrounding chronic illness, mental wellness, trauma, self-advocacy, and social determinants of health.
In addition, donations will support outreach efforts, participant support resources, wellness programming, youth empowerment initiatives, and community partnerships throughout Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio.
Through this project, we hope every woman who shares her story — or hears someone else’s — walks away knowing she is not walking alone.
Needs that Cannot beMet without Your Help
The Warrior in Her has experienced growing demand for wellness support, peer advocacy, prevention programming, and resource navigation services throughout our community. As more women seek support for chronic illness, mental health challenges, trauma, and social barriers, our organization has faced limitations in staffing, program expansion, transportation assistance, educational materials, and consistent program availability due to funding constraints. Like many grassroots nonprofits, limited fundraising capacity and increasing operational costs have made it difficult to fully meet community needs, expand outreach efforts, and sustain the level of individualized support many participants require.
