Women’s Fund of Central Indiana expanding statewide Tamara Winfrey-Harris is the president of the Women’s Foundation of Indiana, shown here in a March 2026 portrait. Credit: Provided photo The Women’s Fund of Central Indiana has spent 30 years investing in the well-being of women and girls in an eight-county region, and recently announced its statewide expansion as it becomes the Women’s Foundation of Indiana.
The decision to grow the organization’s work and mission reflects both an urgent need and direct feedback from women themselves, Tamara Winfrey-Harris, president of the Women’s Foundation of Indiana, said. Hoosier women face significant disparities in health care access, economic mobility, safety and family stability.
And yet issues affecting women and girls only accounted for just over 2 percent of all philanthropic funding in the United States in 2022 and 2023 , according to the Indiana University Lilly School of Philanthropy. “Through research and community listening, women told us clearly: they need more investment, stronger support systems, and policy solutions that improve outcomes for women and families,” Winfrey-Harris said.
“We are responding to what women told us they need. As we expand statewide, we will not act on behalf of women without listening to them first.
” The foundation will lead a series of 11 listening sessions across Indiana — in South Bend, Crown Point, Anderson, Lafayette, Franklin, Terre Haute, Bedford, Evansville, Jeffersonville, Indianapolis and Fort Wayne — to ensure local priorities guide future investment decisions and the foundation’s work.
The feedback from those listening sessions will be paired with county-specific data to create a State of Women in Indiana Report that’s expected to be published in March 2027. “We’re hoping to leave each space with partners in our mission,” Winfrey-Harris said.
“Local nonprofits and not-for-profits will know what’s best for the women in their communities, so we’re coming in as a non-extractive potential partner, ready to build trusting relationships so our new allies feel safe to request and respond.
” To celebrate its debut, the Women’s Foundation of Indiana is directing $336,000 in unrestricted funding to Central Indiana nonprofit partners working to improve outcomes for women and girls in priority areas: health, economic mobility, girls’ empowerment and personal safety/intimate partner violence.

Read articleNSF has $8.8 billion appropriated and is holding roughly $1 billion of it in a central account earmarked for a White House initiative called Grand Research Challenges. Core programs cannot reach the money. Roughly 400 peer-reviewed, recommended proposals are sitting at the Office of Award Management. Here is what the mechanism actually is, why it is different from the terminations story, and how to plan a submission calendar around it.
Read articleNSF 26-517 replaces the core solicitations of Environmental Biology, Integrative Organismal Systems and Molecular and Cellular Biosciences with a single directorate-wide opportunity. Proposals are accepted anytime, sorted centrally by NSF rather than targeted by the PI, and reorganized under three inquiry areas. Here is what the $280 million actually buys, why the loss of program targeting cuts both ways, and what to do before the September 16 webinar.
