The Women and Girls Fund is both a component fund of The Community Foundation and a local movement to involve women in philanthropy. Members of the fund make a gift of $1,000 (in whole or in installments). The Community Foundation invests these gifts and makes a percentage available each year to promising local nonprofits. This way, the fund continues to grow as a charitable asset for the community while also making an immediate difference.
Each year, Women and Girls Fund members come together to cast their ballots to decide which nonprofits will make the best use of available grant funds. This year at least $15,000 will be awarded. Learn more about the voting process here.
