International Women’s Day, an incredibly important day held annually on the 8th March, celebrates the social, political, economic, cultural and even personal achievements of women who live around the globe. It is a call to action for the recognition of equal gender contribution in society, and this call to action has been answered as worldwide groups unite to celebrate the achievements of women and reassemble to establish their equality. In striving for this equality and celebration, International Women’s Day is also enables people to fundraise and promote female-led/female-associated charities and organisations.
International Women’s Day was first founded in the early 1900s, as a great societal debate and disturbance began around the rights and equality of women. Women became more active and vocal in striving to make decisions about their own lives and create social change. The first ever movement towards this cause occurred in New York City in 1908, where 15,000 women marched through the streets demanding shorter working hours, better pay and the right to vote.
