Funding Recipients
Grantmaking
The Women's Funding Alliance granting program supports non-profit organizations throughout the Puget Sound region in Washington State that promote positive social change for women and girls. While we support a broad spectrum of social change efforts, we place particular emphasis on Economic Security, Civic Engagement and Leadership Development. Grants are awarded throughout the year in the following areas: general operating support, capacity building, project specific and population specific.
Federation Funding
As a federation of non-profit agencies serving women and girls, the Women's Funding Alliance offers ongoing support to 21 affiliated agencies through workplace giving campaigns. Many of these organizations might not otherwise have access to such sustained funding. By raising and distributing funds to these affiliated organizations, the Alliance helps more than 10,000 women and children each year through crisis lines, educational programs, support groups, advocacy and training.
Donor Circles
Women's Funding Alliance donor circles collaborate with WFA to choose an issue area each year and then solicit specific agencies for proposals. For example, the Ripple Fund donor circle focused in 2008 on community education and outreach in order to prevent domestic violence in the lives of women and girls. |
