Women all over Memphis are speaking with an increasingly strong and united voice. A new kind of philanthropy is emerging as women share their resources, empower each other and work together to decide and discern solutions. They understand that through the power of collective finance resources, positive changes are possible for women and children in our community. Women and men across the city are making their mark as philanthropists - they are giving consistently and with intent in order to improve the lives of women and children.

A recent study by the Women's Foundation revealed that 80 percent of those living in poverty in Memphis and Shelby County are women and children. The obstacles faced by these women are enormous - unsafe neighborhoods, inadequate daycare, insufficient job training, lack of educational opportunity - the list goes on and the statistics are sobering. The Women's Foundation is committed by its mission to help make a change. We focus on empowerment, opportunity, financial stability, education, choice, resources and independence through grants award to agencies for programs that are specifically designed for women and children. We ask you to join us in our commitment.

When you help a woman, you help her family. When you help her family, you save our future. Make your mark as a philanthropist - please give generously of your resources to empower women and children. Together, we can lift the quality of life for everyone in the greater Memphis community.
