Our Board members come from a myriad of professional and personal backgrounds. They are joined in a shared vision of a United States where immigrants and refugees are seamlessly integrated into the workforce and included in the fabric of American life, and recognized for the value they add to both. Board members support Upwardly Global through strategic direction and by leveraging their experience, expertise and passion to ensure the resources we need to forward our work.
At a time when over 5 million women have left the labor force,
immigrant women and women of color across the board have
experienced even higher unemployment and poverty rates.
And they continue to break down barriers.
Join us as we advance equity for immigrant women.

Help us reach our goal!
In 2020, Upwardly Global celebrates 20 years of opening opportunity to immigrants and refugees. Help us reach our year-end fundraising goal! Your gift is an investment in the diversity and talent of our country, and transforms the lives of families from immigrant and refugee communities.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving, we’ve partnered with our friends at Infinite Global to share three delicious, international recipes from our program participants and staff that you can add to your table! We may not be able to share an in-person meal with friends and family, but we can still celebrate the ways that we are connected, even virtually.
