Doing a bit of research on trends in museums (for an internship) and stumbled across this article from May...<br><br><a href="http://nonprofit.about.com/od/generationalfundraising/a/Women-Rock-At-Supporting-Nonprofit-Causes.htm">http://nonprofit.about.com/od/generationalfundraising/a/Women-Rock-At-Supporting-Nonprofit-Causes.htm</a><br>
<br>A lot of it solidifies many things some of us have been saying, believing and reading about for a while now. I think it's so important for us to see the gender differences in donations in Wikimedia, how we can really latch into getting women who contribute as donors to be contributing beyond just "reading", and really let women know (donor or not) that just by contributing content or images, or edits, is a donation, in a way, to the world of knowledge. It's so important to let one another know that the work we're doing is important - regardless of gender - but that it also has a special image on women..and our contributions. <br>
