How did women help out with World War 1?I would like to know what did women contribute during the war.

The main contribution of women to World War I (at least in the United States) was that they worked in war industries.  About one million women participated in what you might call "war work."  They did things like working in armament plants, machine shops, and steel mills while the men were away.


Women also contributed in more traditional ways.  These included organizing drives to sell war bonds or get donations to help people who had been hurt by the war.  They also helped to save good and other things that were needed for the war effort.
