About Wendy Diamond – Founder WEDO/#ChooseWOMEN
Diamond is an Impact Investor, Entrepreneur, Humanitarian, Founder of LDP Ventures, Animal Fair Media and an Ellis Island Honor Society recipient. She was inspired to launch Women’s Entrepreneurship Day Organization (WEDO)/#ChooseWOMEN in 2013 after volunteering in Honduras with the Adelante Foundation, an organization that provides microcredit to locally impoverished women. Recognizing the fact that women perform 66% of the world’s work, yet only earn 10% of the world’s income while at the same time account for 85% of consumer purchases and control $20 trillion in worldwide spending, Diamond was inspired to create this global movement to economically empower women to alleviate poverty.
