Vision: What We're Building

Gather RI will inspire and educate by spotlighting women and gender expansive people of achievement from around the globe in our public:

Additionally, Gather RI’s Changemakers Club will connect the women and gender expansive people who are creating Rhode Island’s future, and provide them with a safe, accessible haven to meet in.  

Gather RI is a not-for-profit. Its headquarters in Providence will open in 2025.
