GRANTS
Funding is available to organizations with projects that focus specifically on promoting self-sufficiency for women and the people for whom they are responsible.
Thank you to our 2022 Grants Committee: Mimi Galanis (chair), Mary Ratchford (co-chair), Paulette Shockey, Katy Warehime, Peg McGreevy, Catherine Mock, Meg Menke, Kristen Rowe, Lindsay Burdette, Anne Reaver, and Angela Mayer.
In May 2022, we selected 20 local nonprofits serving women in Frederick County to receive a total of $260,000 in grant awards. See our Grant History page for our full list of grant awards.
The 2022 grant pool is the largest in our history and we are grateful to our generous members.
Our Grant Awards Celebration will be held June 17. We hope you will join us.
The 2023 grant application period will open in mid-February, 2023.
