Grants
Since 1993 Women 4 Women has contributed more than $1 million in grants and invested more that $3 million in programs that help women and girls. In 2003 we hired our first Executive Director and developed the "Bold Goals, Gold Solutions" program of work to address women and girls' health and economic well-being concerns within our community. As a result, we are not accepting grant applications from outside organizations at this time.
One of our Bold Goals is to build a $10 million endowment called The Fund 4 Women and Girls by 2010. Once we reach that goal, we will initiate the grant making process. To check the status of our Fund, please go to the 4 Bold Goals - Fund 4 Women and Girls section of this website.
If you have a question about our granting process, contact Women 4 Women at 502.561.8060.
