ABOUT IIX FOUNDATION

Mission to build a more inclusive world

IIX Foundation is a 501(c)3 organization dedicated to building a more inclusive world as the foundation for sustainable peace. As a community of defiant optimists, we take a new approach to building a more peaceful, inclusive and sustainable future by addressing the root causes of inequality and injustice in the world today that lead to conflict. We believe that peace must be built by valuing and empowering everyone – especially those excluded from existing systems – to be a part of the solution for a sustainable world.

Proceeds from the SHE IS MORE art auction, ticket sales, and sponsorships will go to IIX Foundation to support our work empowering underserved women. We do this by supporting the growth of high-impact enterprises that advance women’s leadership, empowerment and livelihoods as well as by mobilizing society-wide support through women-centered innovative financial mechanisms, advocacy and education.
