2025 Rita Thomas $50,000 Matching Challenge
UPDATE: November 23, 2025
🎉💙 WE DID IT — AND EARLY! 💙🎉
Because of your incredible generosity, The Rita Thomas $50,000 Matching Gift Challenge is officially FULLY FUNDED!
This is an extraordinary milestone for Adelante Mujer — one that means more women in Nicaragua and Guatemala will have access to medical and nursing education, mentorship, and a clear path toward becoming the healthcare providers their communities desperately need.
Reaching this goal early doesn’t mean our work is done. As we move into the holiday and end-of-year giving season, your continued support still matters deeply. Every gift—of any size—helps us fuel scholarships, supplies, transportation, clinical hours, and so much more.
Because of you, we are changing the world together.
Thank you for believing in these women, their futures, and their impact. ✨
We are thrilled to announce something truly extraordinary for Adelante Mujer: The Rita Thomas $50,000 Matching Gift Challenge.
Thanks to the remarkable generosity of our friend and longtime supporter, Rita Thomas, every donation made to Adelante Mujer between now and December 31, 2025 will be matched dollar for dollar—up to $50,000.
That means your gift goes twice as far.

What This Means for Our Students
In Nicaragua, young women face enormous challenges in pursuing higher education—especially in medicine. For many, the cost of tuition, supplies, food, and transportation makes the dream of becoming a doctor feel out of reach.
With your help, Adelante Mujer provides scholarships so these women can step into classrooms, clinics, and communities as future healers. When you give today, your support will be doubled, creating a ripple effect of opportunity and hope.
Instead of funding one young woman’s education support, you fund two.
Instead of changing one life, you transform two.

A Gift That Changes the World
Rita Thomas has been a faithful champion of our mission for many years. Her $50,000 Matching Gift Challenge is more than financial support—it’s a statement of faith in the power of women, education, and community.
Rita’s gift tells every student: Your dream matters. Your community needs you. We believe in you.
And now, you can join her in this extraordinary commitment.

How You Can Help
From now through December 2025, every dollar you give will have twice the impact.
•   $50 becomes $100
•   $250 becomes $500
•   $1,000 becomes $2,000
Together, we can raise $100,000 to empower twice as many women to pursue their medical degrees and bring healing to communities that desperately need them.
