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 be accepting Letters of Inquiry from nonprofit organizations working to prevent and address senior isolation and loneliness in San Diego County.
All applicants are strongly encouraged to attend the Grantseekers Forum on October 15 before submitting a Letter of Inquiry. The Grantseekers Forum offers nonprofits an opportunity to gain insight into SDWF’s Cycle 25 LOI guidelines, the application process, and our member-driven grants selection process.
You can view the grant guidelines and application process here.
