In our second year, Women’s March Sacramento was honored by the City of Sacramento, recognizing the 3rd Saturday of January as Women’s Voices Day. On this day of January 2018, 36,000 people of all backgrounds–– women, men and gender nonconforming people, young and old, of diverse faiths, differently abled, immigrants and indigenous--came together, 36,000 strong, to march in solidarity, celebrating women’s rights as human rights.
In its current form, under new leadership, Women’s March Sacramento (WMS) serves the existing Women’s Rights Organizations in the California State Capitol and surrounding areas as a project of Social Good Fund 501(c)(3). For us, Women’s Rights Organizations are broadly inclusive of organizations supporting Gender-Based Peace and Safety, Reproductive Rights, Health and Disability Rights, LGBTQIA+ Rights, Economic Security, Workers’ Rights, Voter Justice, Racial Justice, Religious Peace and Freedom, Immigrant Rights, Indigenous Rights, Climate Justice, and Freedom of Speech. An event ally of Women's March Global, we are 100% volunteer led, and all fundraising comes from the kind generosity of the community. Thank you.
