New Networks: The Power of Women’s Funds For Two-Generation Change

June 25, 2014 | Events

Every day, women’s funds and foundations bring the voices and needs of women and girls to the table for social change. And they invest in women-led solutions at a rate of more than $70 million per year. Two-generation solutions – which meet the needs of and provide opportunities for children and their parents together – are building momentum in the women’s fund field. Join this webinar to learn how these leading-edge approaches are being applied by women’s funds around the country. What lessons can we learn about donor engagement for two generations? What do these new strategies mean for other philanthropic organizations?
