Following our commitment to equity in grantmaking and in direct response to input from our community partners, Women's Way has launched the General Operating Fund in 2022 to provide unrestricted, 2-year grants to organizations primarily serving women, girls, and/or the gender-expansive community.
Last year, Women's Way awarded 11 grants, distributing $110,000 to organizations working to advance gender equity in the region. On Monday, January 9th, we began a new application cycle to fund the second cohort of General Operating Fund grantees!
The Details:
- Unrestricted funding, up to $10,000/year for 2 years
- Applications will be accepted January 9, 2023 – February 6, 2023
- Decisions to be communicated by mid-March 2023
- Priority will be given to organizations that are led by women of color that have budgets of less than $500,000 and those that have not received funding from WOMEN’S WAY between January 1, 2022 – December 31, 2022.
