The Women's Economic Security Campaign (WESC) is a collaboration of four women's funds--the Chicago Foundation for Women, the Washington Area Women's Foundation, the Women's Foundation of California and the Women's Foundation for a Greater Memphis. In collaboration with the Women's Funding Network, we work to increase opportunities for low-income women and their families, ensuring that their struggles are at the center of the debate on improving our nation's economy. Locally, we have partnered with advocacy and research organizations with specific expertise and missions that align with the goals of the Campaign--the Memphis Area Women's Council and the Center for Research on Women at the University of Memphis.

The Women's Foundation for a Greater Memphis plays a dual role in our community. Through our connection as a community leader and funder, we can align experts and advocates from across the business, political, and community spectrums, while strengthening the voices of women and their families. We can facilitate advocacy campaigns and public education efforts by linking grantees and the women they serve to the national and local policy conversation on women's economic security. Join us!
