What
We Do
The Atlanta Women's Foundation is a catalyst for change in the lives of women and girls. Since 1998, we have invested over $27 million in Atlanta across Clayton, Cobb, Dekalb, Fulton, and Gwinnett counties.
We raise funds for grants through a collective impact model that furthers the work of Atlanta nonprofits serving women and girls in metro Atlanta. Through this approach, AWF brings our grantees together in order to do the most good for the largest number of women and girls.
Beyond our role as a funder, we are devoted to providing impactful education and building strong connections throughout our Atlanta community. As an educator, we provide leadership and philanthropic training and conduct research into the challenges women and girls face. As a connector, we build communities by bringing people and organizations together through events tailored to expanding our impact, empowering attendees, and championing our grant recipients.
