Empowering Women and Girls
in Waukesha County since 2004.

This holiday season, we want to once again thank you for supporting the Women and Girls Fund of Waukesha County. Whether you have attended one of our events, contributed to the fund, or actively advocated for women’s and girls’ programs, you are making a difference in our community.

Every dollar counts
Every donation to the Women and Girls Fund, no matter the amount, is part of a collective effort to help empower women and girls in Waukesha County.

Every $10,000 donated to the fund means a targeted grant can be awarded to a local nonprofit agency to fund a well-defined project or program designed to support women and girls in the areas of education, health, safety, transportation and basic living services.
Changing lives one grant at a time
Women and Girls Fund grants directly support programs delivered in Waukesha County. Your 2017 dollars supported ten programs, including:
  • Food for 50 low-income children in the Waukesha and Oconomowoc school districts every weekend during the school year.
  • Free medication for four months for women utilizing a Waukesha County free clinic for acute and chronic illness.
  • 4,000 rides for 250 Muskego-area senior citizens and disabled young adults with no other means of transportation.
  • Four months of shelter, food, counseling and other essential services to help two Waukesha County families become self-sustaining.
See more examples of how your dollars, combined with the generosity of others, are changing lives. Visit  http://www.wgfwaukeshacounty.org/grant-awards/

Help us reach our goal
Thanks to the generous contributions received to date, we have reached 71 percent of our targeted annual appeal goal. If you have not yet made a tax-deductible donation, please consider the Women and Girls Fund in your charitable giving plans. Together, we can change lives, one grant at a time.

We wish you and your family a joy-filled holiday season and a Happy New Year.
