Overview

The grant program facilitated by the Women’s Fund of Greater Green Bay focuses on empowering women and girls through funding leadership and self-esteem projects. It emphasizes the importance of inventive proposals that foster these qualities in the local female population. The evaluation criteria highlight a comprehensive approach, supporting programs that advance women or girls in various aspects of life such as health, safety, learning, achievement, and success. This includes not just direct initiatives for women and girls but also those that ensure healthy relationships and support systems involving men and boys. The fund is open to considering multi-year support for innovative, mission-aligned programs aimed at driving long-term transformation. Priority is given to endeavors that build self-esteem and leadership skills, particularly among those aged 9 to 15, and projects that are unique, result-driven, sustainable, and engender significant positive community impact. Programs are encouraged to be collaborative, inclusive in planning and implementation involving the beneficiaries, and demonstrate measurable outcomes.
