Summer Sips with The Women's Fund
On June 1, we kicked off the summer season with our favorite summer must-haves! We enjoyed the warm weather with over 50 friends, strengthened connections, and admired the beautiful view. Thank you to everyone who joined us, and we hope to see you all again soon! 

If you couldn't make it, check out these fantastic photos from our 2023 Summer Sips event. Be on the lookout for more upcoming gatherings with like-minded women who invest their time, talent and treasure to strengthen the economic security of women and girls in Forsyth County!
Our Membership Model is Unique
The Women's Fund was established in 2005 when five women, affectionately known as the Fab Five, came together with a vision to promote the collective economic impact of women's philanthropy.

Today, the Fund's unique membership model engages a diverse group of several hundred passionate women who pool our resources of time, talent, and treasure to advance the Fund's mission through grantmaking, research, and advocacy.

We're so grateful to our new 2023 and returning members. Thank you for your engagement and support!

Women's Fund membership options differ only by donation amount. Everyone who joins as a member and invests their time, talent, or treasure to support the Fund's mission has an equal vote in our annual grantmaking process and access to Fund opportunities throughout the year.

If finances are a barrier to joining, The Women's Fund values your time and talent equally and invites you to request a complimentary membership and explore more ways to get involved in our work.

Every woman's voice matters, and it's critical to ensure local women closest to the issues we work on have the opportunity to help lead this work and vote on funding decisions.
