The Ripple Effect. It starts with you
In 1986, a group of visionary women business owners founded The Atlanta Women’s Fund as part of the Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta. In 1998, that fund had grown in importance and credibility to become independent as The Atlanta Women’s Foundation (AWF). Backed by the enthusiasm and support of men and women, corporations and foundations, AWF has put over $11 million back into our community. These dollars are the first drops of water that begin the ripple of change in our community today.
The Atlanta Women’s Foundation is dedicated to breaking the generational cycle of poverty for women and girls. Our mission is to be a catalyst for change in the lives of women and girls.
