WFS grantee partners and leaders gathered together

Grantee Partnerships

Local leadership.
Regional possibility.

WFS invests in the brilliance, resilience, and vision of organizations led by women and gender-expansive people across the South.

What We Fund

Partners building health, wealth, and power.

Our grantee relationships reflect the whole lives of Southern women and girls. The work may begin in different places, but each partner is helping communities build greater agency, security, and wellbeing.

Healing and wellbeing

Care, maternal health, safety, restorative justice, and the community conditions that allow women and families to thrive, including mental health.

Economic security

Entrepreneurship, ownership, fair opportunity, and the tools communities need to build lasting wealth and financial stability.

Voice and power

Leadership, organizing, narrative, and policy work that brings Southern women and gender-expansive people into the decisions shaping their lives.
