The Regan Ralph Feminist Leadership Fund
This $1 million, five-year fund will provide vital resources to feminist leaders across the globe.
Our first report spotlighting the work of supported feminist activists and our donors’ impact is now available.
When Regan became the founding President and CEO of the Fund for Global Human Rights, we were a $1 million startup. As she steps down after 20 years of leadership, the Fund is a pillar of the human rights world. We’ve provided more than $124 million in support to more than 900 frontline activists and organizations in over 50 countries.
The Regan Ralph Feminist Leadership Fund was established to honor Regan’s commitment to bold new thinking and amplifying women’s voices.
Supporting Global Feminist Leaders
This funding will give feminist leaders the tools, training, and opportunities they deserve to strengthen their work and remain safe:
- Training, professional development, and executive coaching
- Respite for those who need time to recover, recharge, and innovate
- Evacuation for feminist activists facing threats
- Assistance with building second-line leadership and leadership transitions
- Mentorship and shared knowledge opportunities
Please note, as we already reached our target of $1 million, any future donations will go towards general program funding.

About Regan and Her Impact
From her first day at the Fund, Regan defined our unique approach with a strategy of smart risk-taking and openness to investing in activists working in environments often viewed as too dangerous or nascent. Her focus on identifying and equipping activists from communities directly experiencing inequality and injustice is the foundation of our mission.
Today, the Fund is more needed and more capable than ever before. As we face new challenges, from rising authoritarianism to reshaping societies after the pandemic, we will draw on the fruits of Regan’s work—our passionate staff, dedicated supporters, and financial strength—and will chart a future built on our core values of respect, integrity, sustainability, agility, and inclusivity.
