The Women's Fund aims to promote philanthropy among women and establish a permanent, expanding endowment dedicated to the needs of women and girls in Butler County. It seeks to empower women and girls to achieve their full potential and create opportunities for economic, educational, and personal growth through community involvement and fundraising.
The Unrestricted Community Grants aim to empower the Foundation board to address current and future community needs through the flexibility provided by unrestricted funds from donors. Such grants underscore the importance of public recognition for donors, promoting future contributions by highlighting the impact of these grants on the community. Additionally, the Foundation offers Capital Grants for building construction, renovation, and specialized equipment, focusing on projects that align with Foundation priorities, demonstrate significant community need, and have the potential for a meaningful impact where the Foundation's contribution can make a significant difference. Capital grants are specifically reviewed at the June board meeting, with a submission deadline of May 1st for such requests.
