ABOUT US

WHO WE ARE


In 2020, a handful of women who had been reaching out to their newly arrived Afghan neighbors felt it was time to get organized. Undaunted Women was founded, a Seattle-area 501(c)(3) organization, with a vision to support refugee women and families. We are 100% volunteer-run, and believe in supporting our refugee sisters with low-barrier access to basic donations, English language support, and friendship.


OUR MISSION


We support individuals in overcoming social and economic barriers to self-reliance through connections, advocacy, and inspiration.

  • held 25 in-person English Classes
  • provided 100 hours of driving practice with a mentor (8 women earned their driver's licenses in 2022!)
