Gender

In November 2004, the Board of Directors of the Waukesha County Community Foundation established the Women and Girls Fund of Waukesha County. Distributions from the Fund will be directed toward support of programs and projects that benefit women and girls in Waukesha County.

Objectives:

The Atlanta Women's Foundation is Georgia's only public foundation focused exclusively on the issues of women and girls. We serve five counties in the metropolitan Atlanta area and our donors, and grantee partners come from all walks of life and from all communities. We represent divergent views and experiences, but we all share one important belief: together, we can increase self-sufficiency among women and girls and accomplish positive social change.

The Channel Foundation is a small, private foundation based in Seattle, Washington, USA that promotes leadership in women's human rights around the globe.

The Women’s Sports Foundation—the leading authority on the participation of women and girls in sports—advocates for equality, educates the public, conducts research and offers grants to promote sports and physical activity for girls and women.

Founded by Billie Jean King in 1974, the Women’s Sports Foundation builds on her legacy as a champion athlete, advocate of social justice and agent of change. We strive for gender equity and fight discrimination in sports.

Astraea is a dynamic global foundation providing crucially needed financial support to lesbian-led, trans, LGBTI and progressive organizations.

Separated by continents, language and culture, Astraea grantees are seizing opportunities, and laying the groundwork necessary for women and LGBTI people to claim their human rights.

Astraea staff, board, members and grantees all share a deep commitment to feminist principles, racial and economic justice and human rights.
