    Chicago Foundation for Women

    Mission

    Chicago Foundation for Women (the "Foundation") invests in women and girls as catalysts, building strong communities for all. The Foundation is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to increasing resources and opportunities for women and girls in the Chicago region through grant making, leadership development, and public and grantee education. Since 1985, the Foundation has awarded nearly 4,000 grants totaling $39 million to organizations and programs that make life better for women and girls. The Foundation improves the lives of women and girls by investing in solutions to the most pressing challenges they face - economic security, violence and access to health care. Because of our broad experience and deep roots in the community, the Foundation remains at the forefront of anticipating new challenges facing women and girls and takes bold, but informed, philanthropic risks. The ultimate goal of all of the Foundation's work is to create lasting, positive change in the lives of women.
