The Echo Foundation brings world-renowned humanitarians to Charlotte to deliver messages that galvanize souls to action on behalf of humankind. We do this so that we may build a city that embraces racial diversity, culture and tolerance, and in the hopes that we can inspire the community to act. We bring together people from all corners of the region to act on their highest principles through student dialogues, teacher training workshops, musical programs, art and writing projects and more. While our primary focus is always humanity, our secondary focus is specific to the individual speaker. For example, while Elie Wiesel spoke against indifference, the secondary focus was the Holocaust. In time, other programs may center on race relations, children’s well-being, human rights, ethnic warfare, justice and ethical decision making.

Women Have Options (WHO/O) is Ohio’s statewide abortion fund. Founded in 1992, we are an organization dedicated to helping Ohioans afford their reproductive choices. We believe that everyone should be able to make their own reproductive decisions—and we work to make that a reality in Ohio. We are a founding member of the National Network of Abortion Funds, which includes more than 100 abortion funds around the United States and overseas. We provide financial assistance to help patients afford contraception, emergency contraception, and abortion services. We distribute funds to clinics throughout Ohio. These clinics, in turn, use the funds to provide financial assistance to those in need. Since 1992, Women Have Options has helped thousands pay for their reproductive choices.
