2025 Annual Report: A Year of Growth, Innovation, and Lasting Impact

July 2026

Ready to Empower is proud to release our 2025 Annual Report, highlighting a year of strategic growth, innovation, and meaningful impact as we continued advancing our mission to champion women's empowerment through mental health.

Over the past year, we focused on building a stronger, more sustainable organization—one that can expand access to mental health services while creating lasting change for the women and communities we serve.

Building a More Sustainable Future

One of the most significant milestones of 2025 was the selection of CEPIA in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, as the new implementation partner for our Ready Empowerment Program.

Following an extensive evaluation process, CEPIA was chosen to deliver our five-month mental health and empowerment program through our innovative co-funding model. This new approach reduces annual program costs by approximately 60% while maintaining the same high-quality services—allowing Ready to Empower to expand its reach and serve more women in the years ahead.

Launching Ready EmpowerED

2025 also marked the successful launch of Ready EmpowerED (RED), our mental wellness and resilience program designed for educators, schools, parents, students, and organizations.

Built on more than two decades of clinical expertise, RED exceeded its first-year revenue goals while establishing partnerships with schools, universities, and community organizations—creating an important step toward long-term sustainability for our mission.

Creating Global Impact

Beyond these exciting milestones, Ready to Empower continued expanding opportunities for women through our partnership with Destined to Empower Women (DEW) in India while strengthening the foundation for future growth.

Today, Ready to Empower has helped empower more than 4,500 lives through mental health support, resilience education, and community partnerships around the world.

Thank You

None of this would be possible without the incredible generosity of our donors, volunteers, partners, and supporters.

Every contribution helps create opportunities for healing, resilience, and empowerment. Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us build a future where mental health becomes a catalyst for lasting change.
