FUTURE is a non-profit,
501(c) 3, organization that supports women in other countries and teaches
them an organizational model based on volunteerism that promotes self-reliance,
networking, and unity of the family. FUTURE
also supports the women by assisting them to establish, sustain, and grow
their own volunteer networks.
FUTURE
has taught a group of Iraqi women this organizational model and has assisted
them to form their own organization based on volunteerism called "Women
for Future—Iraq." These grass roots efforts have been taking place
in Iraq since May 2006 and have resulted in improved leadership skills
for the Iraqi women, development of a sense of ownership, increased self-reliance,
creation of stronger family relationships, and the building of humanitarian
aid and business networks. At the core of this program is the volunteer
based, organizational model that brings women together to assist one another
with resources, ideas, and support in order to solve problems in their
homes and neighborhoods leading to a more stable and peaceful Iraq.
The Iraqi women are excited about their organization, and
they have achieved much.
