Vermont Women's Fund Grant

The Vermont Women’s Fund focuses on enhancing economic well-being for women and girls, spotlighting career development among other areas identified by their initiative, Change The Story. They aim to bridge significant funding gaps, supporting programs that address systemic barriers to economic success, with an acute awareness of the disproportionate challenges based on race, gender identity, sexuality, class, age, and ability. The fund supports the sustainability of organizations it backs, offering single or multi-year grants for programmatic expenses and/or general operating costs. Their grantmaking strategy includes proposals for general operating support and programs aimed at making economic pathways more visible and accessible, improving economic security and career prospects for underemployed women, addressing systemic barriers to well-being, and enhancing organizational capacity to fulfill their mission and values.
