Each year Women’s Way positively impacts the lives of more than 150,000 women, girls and families by providing unrestricted, general operating funds to a network of organizations assisting women and girls throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania and Southern New Jersey. Women’s Way also effectively advocates for and creates public awareness around the kind of larger, systemic changes that will continue to advance women’s progress. The mission of Women’s Way is to raise money and public awareness to fight for and achieve women’s equality, safety, self-sufficiency and reproductive freedom through women-centered funding, advocacy and education.

In addition to providing annual allocations to six member agencies, Women’s Way established the Community Women’s Fund, an open grant-making process to provide funding to other women-led organizations serving women, girls and their families in the region. The Community Women’s Fund is uniquely community-driven, with yearly funding priorities developed from the annual Women’s Issues Summit. Grant requests are reviewed by a committee comprised of diverse community members.

A gift to Women’s Way reaches deep into our community and maximizes your philanthropic dollars by supporting a wide range of essential agencies. These agencies address a broad continuum of issues that impact women of all ages, races and socioeconomic backgrounds. They focus particularly on providing services to lowincome women and their families.

We ask you to designate a gift to Women’s Way and help us achieve a more equitable community. Your gift to Women’s Way will continue to assist our member agencies as well as support the Community Women’s Fund. Visit our website (www.womensway.org) to learn more and sign up for Fe-Mail, our monthly electronic newsletter. Stand up and raise your Powerful Voice for Women!

All designated contributions in excess of the set amount will be disbursed to the designated agency.
