Google.org President Jacquelline Fuller on the Google.org Impact Challenge for Women and Girls

President of Google.org, Jacquelline Fuller, joins Alyse Nelson on the heels of the announcement of the 34 selected organizations for Google.org's $25M Impact Challenge for Women and Girls. They discussed the importance of private sector collaborations with organizations like Vital Voices, a partner on the Challenge, how we can realistically create a path to achieving SDG 5; Gender Equality, and why women's representation is critical to progress.

In the global philanthropic community, less than 2% percent of resources are channeled specifically to help causes centered around women and girls. Committed to identifying these philanthropic gaps and merging those with Google’s strengths and values, Google.org is making investing in women and girls a top priority through innovative methods including Google Ad Grants and increased philanthropic capital.
