THE SAGE APPROACH

To support the advancement of women in the world today, the China-U.S. Women’s Foundation, a 501(c)(3), is working to improve the lives of women through key initiatives. We aim to achieve tangible results in the areas of social health, arts, gender equality and education (SAGE), part of the United Nations Sustainability Development Goals. As we make progress, it will lift all of society.

As the Chinese proverb says, "It is better to light one candle than to curse the darkness." Women working together can illuminate the world.
