Women's Fund of Mississippi

Women's Fund

For five years, the Women’s Fund has helped educate the greater Jackson, Mississippi, community about issues that create economic and social challenges for women and children, while providing vital funding for programs that help women and girls in need.

With our two-year $375,500 grant, the newly renamed Women’s Fund of Mississippi will move forward as an independent, not-for-profit organization with a wider vision, greater scope and better access to national funding. This “go-to” organization will focus on services and advocacy to enable early intervention on behalf of children and promote greater family security. It will also work to create favorable policies for children and expand successful programs statewide.
