Visit the charity's profile
GAIN (Girls Are Investors) is a charity set up by investment professionals to improve gender diversity in investment management by building a talent pipeline of entry-level female and non-binary candidates. Our focus is to generate more and better prepared women for investment firms through early engagement with sixth form and university students. We inform young women with free resources, events & programmes. We inspire young women with a network of industry role models who speak at events and offer mentorship.

Story

Welcome to our first ever GAIN Giving Week!

We created GAIN Giving Week as a way for you, our amazing supporters, to fundraise for GAIN - whether personally or as a team.

This special week will take place from October 9th to October 13th, aligning with International Day of the Girl on October 11th.

All proceeds from GAIN Giving Week will go towards the GAIN Bursary, helping to support individuals whose finances are a barrier to accessing the opportunities that GAIN offers

*WHO CAN FUNDRAISE?

We welcome anyone to fundraise for us whether you’re an individual, a school group, a university society, or a corporate team demonstrating your commitment to bridging the gender diversity gap in the industry.

*WE WANT TO SHOUT ABOUT YOU!

If you're taking par this year, don't forget to email Paige@gainuk.org so we can track your progress and feature you in our volunteer newsletter and social channels

*HOW GAIN TEAM MEMBERS ARE FUNDRAISING

Paige Taylor, GAIN's Programmes Coordinator and the mastermind behind GAIN Giving Week is taking on the 3 Peaks, in 3 Days!

Do you know the three highest mountains in the UK? Snowdonia in Wales, Scafell Pike in England, and Ben Nevis in Scotland. Together, they reach a towering 11,183 feet with a peak altitude of 4,409 feet. Paige, along with a team of brothers, will be taking on the challenge of conquering these three peaks to raise funds for the GAIN Bursary.

From September 4th to September 6th, starting in Bristol, she will journey to Ben Nevis, then Scafell Pike, and finally Snowdonia. After that, she'll take a well-deserved rest to recover.

Good luck Paige!

Thank you in advance for your support.
