...for our exciting Presentation of Grants
Thanks to our generous members—including 195 new ones—we will be distributing $535,000 in grants this spring. That's an amazing $50,000 more than last year!
Grants will be presented at an afternoon reception at The Fess Parker where Women’s Fund members, friends and guests will meet our new grantees.

Look for your electronic invitation in March.

The path to our May 2 Presentation of Grants has several steps
Women's Fund members who joined by December 31, 2017 created a pool of donated funds to be distributed this spring.
After nearly a year of research, our Research Committee is completing a ballot of deserving nonprofit candidates to be considered for 2017-18 Women's Fund grants.

Thank you to our corporate sponsor
Michael Bryant of Bryant & Sons is once again underwriting the printing of our annual report. We are so grateful for his generosity!
One of the important principles of the Women’s Fund is minimizing our costs so we can donate maximum dollars into the community. Support from our corporate sponsors plus the $25 fee attending members will pay, will cover our event costs.
Invite a prospective member
Another Women’s Fund principle is that we don’t hold fundraising events. But our two big member events each year—the Presentation of Grants in the spring and the Site Visit Kick-Off in the fall—are excellent “friend-raising” opportunities to introduce the Women’s Fund to potential new members.
So plan to bring a guest with you at no charge!
