Chicago Foundation for Women

One of the largest women’s funds in the world, Chicago Foundation for Women believes that all women and girls in the Chicago metropolitan area have the opportunity to achieve their potential and to live in safe, just and healthy communities. We support the achievement of social justice through grantmaking and advocacy. Since 1986, the Foundation has impacted social justice through advocacy, leadership development, and public and grantee education. In addition, we have awarded more than 2,000 grants totaling $12 million to hundreds of organizations that make life better for women and girls. Our work is rooted in three principles of women’s human rights: economic self-sufficiency; freedom from violence; and access to health services and information.
