OUR DONORS

Eva Fearn

“I was so inspired by Anla's opening speech and the remarks from all the honorees, especially Sheryl, Loida, and Anita. Empowering women and girls is a passion of mine as well, and I’m so discouraged by the persistent gender gap. The Serica Initiative is doing great work!

Eva Fearn

Director, Development Communications, Global Markets, The Nature Conservancy

Mary Pan
