To support our focus, the Wisconsin Women’s Fund has awarded over $102,000 in giving since 2017. These gifts support diverse Wisconsin non-profit programs that advocate for women and girls. Financial giving is awarded to programs that address:
· basic life skills, including financial wellness or financial literacy.
· prevention and support services for those affected by violence.
· building one’s self-esteem through healthy choices.
· building healthy relationships and confidence through sports;
cycling and other outdoor non-stick-n-ball sports in particular.
· hands-on experiences including STEM education.
We do not accept inquires or grant request. Instead, we learn about organizations referred to us by our donors and partners. Gifts are then distributed accordingly.
