Advocacy for Girls & Women in Sport

What We're Passionate About

At Champion Women, we are deeply committed to leveraging the power of sport to foster social justice and equality for girls and women. Our passion lies in creating safe and fair environments where female athletes can thrive. Through advocacy, education, and community engagement, we strive to eliminate barriers, protect rights, and promote equality in sports. We believe that every girl and woman deserves the opportunity to participate in sports without discrimination or abuse, and we work tirelessly to make this vision a reality.

“America needs a women’s sports organization with the unique and sole focus of strong advocacy against the inequality of women and girls in sport…Champion Women can be that organization. I am proud to be associated with Champion Women.”

Champion Women fills a critical and missing voice to ensure that all girls and women have true equality and meaningful access to sports opportunities. Nancy Hogshead is the perfect leader to drive this new organization—she is a relentless advocate, brilliant strategist, and committed changemaker on behalf of girls and women in sports.”
