National Women's History Month Funding Initiative 2025

Honor the Women Who Inspire You, And Help Create a More Equitable Future.

March is National Women’s History Month, a time to recognize the bold, brilliant women who shape our communities, businesses, and lives. This year, we invite you to do more than celebrate. We invite you to take action.

With your support, we’re launching a special appeal to raise $5,000 in March. Your donation will directly support initiatives empowering women and girls. But there’s more: When you make a donation, March 1-31, 2025, you get to name one woman-owned business you admire!

Here’s how it works:

💜 Make a gift—any amount, big or small.

💜 Add the name of one woman-owned business and the website link in the comments when you donate.

💜 Watch as we celebrate them! Every named business will be featured on our website and across our social media channels throughout March.

Our goal? 31 days. 31 businesses named. $5,000 raised.

It’s a simple but powerful way to uplift the women entrepreneurs who make our community stronger while fueling the future for the next generation.

Your donation doesn’t just support the Women’s Fund. It sends a message: women’s leadership, innovation, and economic success matter.

Donate today. Name one business. Help us make history.
