WHO is Women Helping Others!

The WHO (Women Helping Others) Foundation established in 1993 is committed to encouraging women everywhere to help others through community service; supporting organizations dedicated to the needs of women and children in crisis; and, informing people about health and education issues. Since its inception, the WHO Foundation has granted more than $2 million to other non-profit organizations supporting such issues as teen pregnancy, rape, education, homelessness, drug and alcohol abuse, and domestic violence.

Their mission

The WHO Foundation nationally supports grass-roots charities serving the overlooked needs of women and children.

The WHO Foundation is committed to:

• Encouraging women everywhere to help others through
  local community service.

WHO Foundation grants

Each year the WHO Foundation accepts grant requests from 501 (c) (3) non-profit organizations for programs benefiting women and children. We are proud to support a variety of grass-roots charities providing health/dental care, basic adult education, support for women in crisis and many other much needed services.

Many of BeautiControl's 100,000 Independent Consultants throughout the United States and Puerto Rico volunteer their time leading fund-raising activities to benefit local groups and the WHO Foundation. Each year, the WHO Foundation Awards recognizes BeautiControl Consultants who have demonstrated outstanding volunteerism in their communities. Winners of the WHO Foundation Community Service Awards each receive a check from the WHO Foundation made payable to the charity for which they volunteer. Each year, the foundation also selects several national grant recipients.

“Through the support of many people, the WHO Foundation has made a tremendous difference to women and children in need across the country,” says WHO Foundation Chairman Jo-Anne Jaeger. “We make that difference in communities where there’s a need often overlooked by bigger organizations. BeautiControl Independent Consultants fill that gap through their volunteer efforts and the WHO Foundation fills it through financial support. Everyone should have a chance to improve their lives and that is what the WHO Foundation is all about.”
