LWH is a project of 1 La Salle: From Desks to Dreams.

The Lasallian Women of Hope project is a compassionate outreach to females attending Lasallian schools around the globe. Through the program’s grants, women and girls are empowered to overcome challenges which would otherwise impede their continuing education.

The mission of LWH is to ensure girls and women enjoy full access to Lasallian education. Beginning as a small project providing grassroots female empowerment, LWH provides sustainable solutions to mitigate obstacles impeding educational access. Through its grants, LWH delivers creative, effective, and durable solutions to educational inequities for girls and women.

Jane Wambui Mainah and Maryann Donohue-Lynch share the story of how LWH began.
