“It’s a space where I can work to make my feminist visions real, and work with other feminists to collectively build and give space to strong, resilient, vibrant feminist movements.”

Coco Jervis (En)

Director of Programmes

''I am proud to contribute to an organisation that is committed to embedding the values of sharing power in all of the ways that we work. Becoming a fully participatory grantmaker is just one example of the ways in which we will continue to disrupt traditional philanthropy.''

Sharon Petrie (En)

Director of Partnerships and Communications

I am privileged to work with fearless feminist activists every day. We are all working together to create a more just and equal world for women, girls, and trans and intersex people.

Linda Moerland (Nl/En)

Director of People, Finance and Operations

I feel privileged and excited to be a part of Mama Cash because I believe in the power of feminist movements to protect the most marginalised and bring about systemic change. The struggle for equality and freedom for women, girls, and trans and intersex people is intensifying fast, and it’s far from over.
