A WORLD WITHOUT CERVICAL CANCER DEATHS IS POSSIBLE.
The knowledge and technology exist to eliminate cervical cancer with effective, low-cost tools, even in the poorest parts of the world. TogetHER is a global partnership ensuring the elimination of cervical cancer through advocacy, partnership, and knowledge-sharing, enabling equitable access to effective prevention and care.
TogetHER's Cervical Cancer Grants Program accepted submissions through Friday, May 30th.
Note that we do not accept applications via email, and we do not offer extensions on this deadline. Thanks to all who have applied. We look forward to announcing the awardees in August of 2025.

The newest installment in our monthly Voices TogetHER storytelling series features our partners at Slum and Rural Health Initiative (SRHI), one of our 2024-2025 awardees under our Cervical Cancer Grants Program. Their youth-designed and youth-led project is driving increased uptake of HPV vaccination in Lagos State, Nigeria.
SRHI provided us with a great video featuring their Youth for HPV champions. They also enlisted one of those champions to blog about her experience as a cervical health advocate in Lagos. Thanks to the efforts of Mfonobong and her peers, more people are able to recognize the importance of early prevention to end cervical cancer.
Executive Director Heather White and Co-Founder/Chief Strategy Officer Kathy Vizas were fortunate to attend the 2025 Skoll World Forum, held in Oxford, United Kingdom from April 1-4. Each year, Skoll brings together some of the world’s foremost thought leaders (and DO’ers!) driving social change on critical global issues such as health, education, climate resilience, indigenous rights and other issues of our time.
Dr. White has summarized her Skoll highlights - including an event co-hosted by TogetHER, our great partners, and inspiration from our ongoing work to retire cervical cancer to the history books.
As we celebrate both International Women’s Day on March 8th and Women’s History Month throughout March, we take inspiration from the timeless imagery of “Rosie the Riveter,” a symbol of the significant contributions women made to the United States’ wartime effort on the home front during World War II. Rosie’s fierce determination in the face of uncertainty and challenge feels like an appropriate image to share as we contemplate our own global battle against cervical cancer deaths.
We look forward to using our new Rosie image throughout the year as a striking reminder to sustain our collective fight against this preventable cancer, and we invite you to do the same. The image has space for you to place your own logo. Please use it and share with others! Together, we CAN do it!
