CHAMPIONS FOR CHANGE
Power the Rise of Women Leading in Sports!
When women rise into leadership, entire ecosystems change – for the better.
Our commitment
Women Leaders in Sports is committed to advancing women working across every level of the industry - from emerging professionals to c-suite shaping the future of sport.
For decades, women have entered the industry in strong numbers, yet too few reach positions of influence. We close that gap - not just with inspiration, but with intentional leadership development, meaningful connection, and sustained career support.
Champions for Change donors make this possible.
When you invest in Women Leaders, you’re not funding a moment - you’re fueling a movement that reshapes boardrooms, sidelines, and executive suites across the industry in a positive and impactful way.
Your support ensures that talented women in sports are not overlooked, unsupported, or left behind - but instead have the opportunity to rise, thrive, and lead.
Your gift powers three critical areas:
1) Scholarships: Increasing access to membership and leadership experiences, particularly for women facing tightening budgets and for long-time members whose organizations can no longer provide support
2) Leadership Experiences: Expanding access to high-quality virtual and in-person experiences led by top-tier experts
3) Capacity Building: Strengthening our infrastructure, technology, and resources so we can thoughtfully scale and better serve more women
Why your support matters:
Despite progress, women remain underrepresented in leadership roles across the sports industry.
When a woman rises into leadership in sport, she changes more than her own career trajectory she changes hiring practices, team culture, decision-making rooms, and the aspirations of the young women watching.
Your support ensures that talented women are seen, developed, and elevated.
Together, we are not simply increasing representation - we are building a future where leadership in sport reflects the strength, intelligence, and diversity of the women who power it.
