We are a membership organization, founded in the year 2000 with a vision of elevating women in philanthropy. Together, our 200+ members have made significant changes in the community through our annual grantmaking process.
We will soon begin accepting applications for Cohort 10 of the SDWF Philanthropy Fellowship Program!
Individuals interested in applying for the fellowship program are encouraged to attend this forum to learn more about the program, expectations, eligibility and the application process.
We are preparing to review grant proposals from nonprofit organizations dedicated to preventing and addressing senior isolation and loneliness in San Diego County.
