Become a Foundation or Corporate Partner
Tahirih relies on generous support from foundation and corporate partners to positively impact the communities we work in. Contributions from institutional partners ensure that Tahirih can continue to provide holistic programs to immigrant women and girls fleeing violence and, ultimately, create lasting legal and social change in the community.

Support Tahirih’s National or Houston Benefits
Tahirih’s national fundraising Benefit is our single largest income-generating event of the year, and we anticipate our first Houston Benefit in 2012 will serve as a similar source of financial support for our Texas office. Both events serve as important platforms to spread awareness about the plight of women and girls in need. Tahirih’s Benefit is attended by a diverse community of supporters, including many distinguished guests and participants. For more information about corporate sponsorship of either event, please visit our Benefit page.

Tahirih is proud to partner with individuals and corporate businesses that donate a portion of their proceeds to support Tahirih’s work, either as an ongoing part of their efforts or through a specific event. Tahirih would like to recognize the following supporters for their continued generosity and encouragement of our work:
EILEEN FISHER
Since 2007, the two EILEEN FISHER
stores in the Washington, DC area have designated Tahirih as their charity of choice and donated a portion of an entire day’s sales to support Tahirih’s efforts to protect women and girls in need. EILEEN FISHER is guided by a purpose to inspire simplicity, creativity and delight through connection and great design.
AmyLin’s Pearls and Jewelry
Since 2007, Amy Lin, a renowned jeweler from Shanghai, China, and owner of Amylin’s Pearls and Jewelry, has come to Washington, DC, to sell discounted pearls at week-long public events. A large portion of each sale benefits Tahirih’s efforts to protect women and girls in need.
SheandMe Intimates
Since 2006, the California-based SheandMe Intimates
has donated a portion of all their sales to support Tahirih’s efforts to protect women and girls in need. SheandMe is a pioneer in the women’s wear market, delivering versatile styles that sustain the woman who juggles her job, family, fashion, exercise & social calendar.
