What’s Happening
2025 Grants Announced—WGA Reaches Historic Milestone in Grantmaking
The Women’s Giving Alliance has reached a historic $10 million in grantmaking – an achievement that was announced at its annual Member Forum. In 2025 WGA awarded $612,500 in grants to 10 non-profits, targeting a new focus area, Addressing Violence Against Women & Girls.
Upcoming Events
The Women's Giving Alliance hosts a number of events for members to get to know one another and to learn about strategic philanthropy. Most are open to the public.
WGA's Strategic Focus Area
From 2023-2024, a Member-led task force interviewed grantees and community leaders on challenges facing women and girls. These findings were combined with secondary data and presented to Members. The outcome is WGA’s new focus area for its grants and community efforts for 2025 and beyond: Addressing Violence Against Women & Girls.
2023/24 Annual Report to the Community
In 2023 and 2024, WGA reached new heights. We recruited the largest number of new Members since our founding in 2001 and conducted a matching challenge that led to our largest grants distribution in history.
“Beyond the sheer goodness of philanthropy, it is interesting to see how a smart group of people put their good intentions into action.”
