Grantmaking Initiatives | Women's Endowment Fund Inspiring, empowering, and uplifting women and girls In 1993, a group of 100 women came together with one goal in mind: to make a difference in the lives of local women and girls. Seeing a need for funding to support programs that empower this population, the women each gave $1,000 to establish the Women's Endowment Fund of Akron Community Foundation.
Three decades later, the Women's Endowment Fund has grown to nearly $6 million, thanks to the generosity of donors who are committed to the advancement of local women and girls, including members of the fund's Circle of Empowerment . To date, the Women's Endowment Fund has awarded nearly $2. 7 million in grants to programs that uplift, empower, and educate women and girls throughout Akron and all of Summit County.
The fund's biennial forum helps define the Women's Endowment Fund's grantmaking priorities, which include health and wellness, safety from violence, and economic empowerment. Advisory board members serve without pay to help the fund impact the lives of Summit County's women and girls.
