Mission

The women's fund raises funds and commissions the latest research, leverages our convening power, and our knowledge of local and national efforts toward gender equity and empowerment to invest in the community and advance women and girls. Our work focuses on improving economic security for women and girls; giving women and girls the confidence to take on positions of power and leadership; and promoting safety and freedom from gender-based sexual violence, toxic relationships, and power dynamics. We do all this by nurturing a thriving, diverse and inclusive women- and girl-serving community to better advance gender and racial equity.
