During this global pandemic, we hope that you and your loved ones are well and finding the care and support you need.
As we all adjust to this rapidly-evolving situation, we wanted to provide a brief update from the Women’s Fund.
- Because of your gift to the Women’s Fund, we’re poised to respond quickly. The Women’s Fund is committed to best deploying philanthropic resources in a manner most responsive to our community.
- We are deploying more—and more flexible—capital into the nonprofit sector. Our nonprofit partners are on the frontlines and supporting communities whose health and economic security is most vulnerable.The Women’s Fund will distribute general operating support broadly across our community so that nonprofits can address the impacts of COVID-19 and maintain delivery of services.
We are increasing the
2020 Women’s Fund grants from $300,000 to $400,000 and
revising our grants process to serve more nonprofits. This decision was not made hastily. We remain committed to an engaging and thorough grants review process, and yet understand the greater community needs and the role philanthropy can play.
We continue to be so grateful for the generosity, flexibility and commitment of Women’s Fund Investors in these uncertain times. If you’d like to further support our community during these challenging times, please consider making a gift to the Women’s Fund below.
