Grant Stories

Our grants program is focused on addressing the root causes of financial instability for women--not just the symptoms. Our grant recipients develop strong collaborative partnerships to address the multiple challenges women face as they work toward financial stability and independence. Here are some stories of how our grants have changed women's lives.
