In a world where cash is king sometimes the greenback dollar isn’t the only way to get things done, and it is certainly not the only way to give. As a perpetual student, in these early stages giving can be a smile, a funny antic, or through old fashion wo(man) power with strong knees and hands that like labor. In the words of poet Alberto Rios in When Giving Is All We Have: 


“Giving is, first and every time, hand to hand, mine to yours, yours to mine. You gave me blue and I gave you yellow. Together we are simply green. You gave me what you did not have, and I gave you what I had to give – together we made something greater from the difference”. 

Though giving monies is not feasible for me at this time, I look forward to a time when I will be able to give. In the meantime, brainstorming ways to be most effective has been so exciting.

Why the World needs SWELL

SWELL matters — not just to those who participate, but to the world.

We’re creating a movement where giving becomes not only a personal journey but a collective act of transformation. We believe this work is worth doing. Because when women come together, when we share our wisdom and our dreams, the world changes.
