The crisis for women is real and evolving.
We are determined to address inequities and eliminate barriers.

For nearly forty years we have been a powerful voice boldly challenging the status quo and advocating for gender equity. We are not your average advocates; we are pioneers of change, weaving dreams into reality.

As disruptors for good, we are fearlessly uncompromising in the way we push boundaries and reshape societal norms in our quest to realize a world where every woman, girl, and gender-expansive person thrives authentically and unapologetically.

At the Women’s Fund of Greater Milwaukee, compassion meets expertise… and empathy fuels action. As we journey together toward gender equity, every dollar, every voice, and every heart matters. Your support becomes the ripple that transforms lives and illuminates Greater Milwaukee in progress.

Join us for an eye-opening evening as Jeff Mandell, co-founder of Law Forward, unpacks key cases that may reach the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

He’ll break down what’s at stake and what to watch ahead of the April 1, 2025, election.

Jeff, a leading expert in election and constitutional law, brings nearly 20 years of litigation experience. Law Forward is Wisconsin’s nonpartisan, nonprofit, pro-democracy law firm. Don’t miss this chance to stay informed and ask questions!

THE
FACTS
SAY IT
BEST

Data shows that, on average, women’s funds move money nine months faster than traditional philanthropic channels.

 

In Wisconsin, men are 2.5 times more likely to be in STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) occupations than women.

 

Although the number of women in the U.S. Congress has reached an all-time high, more women need those roles. If trends continue at the current rate, women will not hold an equal share of seats until the year 2117We can’t wait that long…

why our work matters

Just 2%… The latest study from the Women’s Philanthropy Institute at IUPUI indicates that only 1.9% of all charitable giving supports organizations for women and girls.
