Women's Plans Foundation is a charitable trust which advocates a family planning component for all overseas aid programs.

We raise funds for overseas programs accredited by AusAID and delivered in partnership with in-country organisations in the Asia Pacific Region.

Why?

• Family planning is a vital part of reproductive health. Spacing of children improves everyone's survival and education levels.
• Without family planning, families and communities cannot climb out of poverty in areas of overpopulation and environmental limits.
• 40% of 210 million pregnancies world-wide are unplanned.
• Funding of contraceptives is diminishing world-wide, whereas the population has nearly quadrupled in the past 100 years, with the largest generation ever now entering reproductive age.

The women's share

Australian women can reach out to women in this part of the world to share an ability we now take for granted - planning the number and spacing of children. Women know how many children they can nurture, and women know there are many ways to contribute to society.

Our sharing

You can do more to help the world's population pressures (famine, war, disease, environmental degradation) by donating to the family planning component in overseas aid than you can in any other fundamental way. The effects of your help will grow exponentially in world stewardship.
