The Team: Women for Women

With passion, enthusiasm and professionalism for women and girls

“It was only through living in Marrakech that I realized how lucky I was to have been born a woman in Germany. It was only here that I realized that the freedom to decide for yourself how to dress, what to learn or who to love is not a given.” Quote by Andrea Bury

Out of this feeling, the ABURY Foundation was born in 2011. With Heike Janssen, Britt Hess and Petra Hoffmann, Andrea has been joined by three experienced female entrepreneurs and together they form the heart of the ABURY Foundation. The common goal: to help as many girls and women as possible to develop more self-confidence and to accompany them on their way to greater financial independence.

How we work

Our values

Trust

For us, trust means empowerment by trusting someone to do something. Trust is motivation.

Honesty

We believe in dealing with people honestly and in open communication. Honesty is transparency.

Respect

We meet every person at eye level. Respect is appreciation.

Curiosity

We love the diversity of cultures and want to learn with and from each other. Curiosity is inquisitiveness.

Voices from the team

Economic inequality around the world is still extreme. We know from many studies that a diverse team-led economy is more efficient, socially and environmentally sustainable. In this context, empowering women is not just a gender issue, it is about preserving our planet.

Andrea BuryCEO / Gründerin

The diversity of cultures, traditions, beauties and courage of many women in the world have my deep respect. Too often women are not given the opportunity to contribute to visions. No education, no choice, no chance: Everyone should have a chance and everyone has the right to it.
