What we do

Through our programming and community space, the Kota Alliance serves as a hub for individuals, entrepreneurs, and organizations working for the empowerment of women* and girls, both locally and globally.

While recognizing the intersectionality of women’s rights, we focus on economic empowerment and health & wellness as the two pillars necessary for women’s advancement.

Our vision

Kota’s vision is to help close the gender equity gap by increasing our collective capacity to create change: by providing like-minded organizations a community hub to connect and amplify their work.

Rather than competing with existing organizations or duplicating efforts, we foster collaboration with women focused non-profits and entrepreneurs, both locally and globally - to pave the path towards gender equity, inclusive economic growth, and increased well being for women, families, and the world.

Our mission

The Kota Alliance is committed to advancing gender equity and women's* empowerment. Our strategic focus on two fundamental interconnected pillars—economic growth and independence, along with optimal health and wellness—serves as the foundation for catalyzing transformative change in the lives of women, fostering resilience and prosperity on both local and global scales. Through collaboration with like-minded organizations we build collective strength and amplified impact.

*Our commitment to gender inclusivity is unwavering, ensuring that all women, including those from gender-diverse backgrounds, feel not just welcomed but valued under the Kota umbrella 


“Kota” has several meanings in different languages: allies, a city center, the core of an apple, a teepee. With our headquarters in New York City - the core of the Big Apple.
