The Women's Foundation of Colordo

Description

Since its inception in 1986, The Women’s Foundation of Colorado, Inc. has focused upon the following goal: that every woman in Colorado is economically self-sufficient, and every girl is on the path to economic self-sufficiency in adulthood. The Foundation funds five interdependent strategies to achieve this goal: 1) research to identify critical issues and solutions, 2) education to shine a spotlight on these issues and solutions, 3) public policy reform to change systemic barriers to economic self-sufficiency, 4) grant making to nonprofit organizations that work directly with women and girls to create pathways to economic self-sufficiency, and 5) fund raising to significantly invest in these strategies. The Foundation also works to promote and inspire women and girls as strategic philanthropists and advocates for change.
