Yes. Thank you very much.
The Women's Future Fund, as I mentioned, is a coalition of, at the moment, nine national women's organizations. We are constantly receiving applications for other under-resourced women's organizations. Our membership is made up of board members from other organizations. What we do, basically, is seek to access workplace giving programs like the United Way does. But United Way funding is not accessible to national women's organizations, so we have a two-step process. We have to get access from employers who invite us in and say, yes, you're welcome to talk to our employees. Then we speak to the employees; we talk about the work of our member groups, and employees get to decide whether or not to donate to our member groups through payroll deduction.
What we're finding is that when we have the opportunity to speak to people about the work that NAWL, LEAF, Media Watch, ACTEW, and other organizations do, people are happy to donate to us. The challenge is that it takes a long time. It took a long time for the United Way to build up its momentum, and it's going to take us another five or so years, at least, until we're self-sustaining. But that's our goal. We have been cut, all of our member groups, repeatedly over the last 15 years; we are absolutely attempting to become self-sustaining. The scope and the breadth of the work that our member groups do is simply not something that is easily funded. I know you've heard from some of our member groups; I'm not going to reiterate the great work that NAWL and CRIAW do, but it's not something that $5 or $10 membership fees are ever going to cover.
