This initiative aligns with the foundation's mission to address systemic barriers contributing to gender and racial disparities within the community. The grants are designed to support programs that enhance economic, educational, physical health, and emotional well-being, ultimately improving the overall quality of life for women and girls in the region. The primary beneficiaries of this grant program are women and girls in Forsyth County, NC, particularly those served by smaller, newer, or women of color-led organizations. The program aims to increase economic security and mobility for these target groups. Impact goals include fostering opportunities that lead to improved economic, educational, physical health, and emotional well-being. The Women's Fund prioritizes funding for organizations with an annual revenue of $250,000 or less, those led by women of color (with more than 50% of decision-makers identifying as such), and organizations that actively involve women or girls in the design or implementation of their programs. These priorities reflect the foundation's strategic approach to addressing the challenges faced by underrepresented groups in securing funding. Eligible grant proposals must focus on increasing economic security and/or mobility for women and girls, benefit and positively impact women and girls, and be implemented in Forsyth County, NC. The grants are open to 501(c)(3) organizations, government or public agencies, and faith-based organizations, with provisions for fiscal agents for organizations without 501(c)(3) status. This framework reflects the foundation's theory of change, which posits that by supporting these specific types of organizations and focus areas, they can create measurable positive outcomes for women and girls in the community.
