Welcome to my very first blogging experience. This is a big step for someone who does not facebook or twitter! I make this exception because Women's Fund is an organization that is important to me and, I believe, essential for the central Indiana community. If you look over some of the previous posts, you can read about a few of the services provided by agencies that focus on meeting the needs of women and girls. Women's Fund exists to support agencies that provide these front-line services. It does so by distributing grants to effective and innovative agencies that will transform lives. However, it is important to me that the impact is not a short-term one. The transformation of a single woman or girl is amazing, but it takes more to build a community and sustain that success. Women's Fund maintains a permanent endowment. A well-funded endowment allows Women's Fund to research and communicate the needs of women and girls in this community. A well-funded endowment supports the needs of the agencies to continue their crucial services. A well-funded endowment creates opportunities for sustained success in changing the lives of our friends and neighbors. A well-funded endowment builds communities that help women and men, girls and boys, live lives of dignity.
I believe in this mission and I have seen the impact Women’s Fund already has had on this community. When Women’s Fund determined to do more for central Indiana so that agencies with qualified needs were not left without adequate funding, I was grateful to be able to contribute to and participate in its endowment campaign. Women’s Fund is in the final few months of a crucial campaign to grow its endowment an additional $10 million. This will allow Women’s Fund to significantly increase its impact on the community, with a goal of distributing $1 million dollars a year.

Contributing toward the transformation of lives and building a better community through an organization that so carefully monitors and distributes my philanthropic dollars means that I can make an immediate and lasting impact through one endowment fund that will support this community well beyond my lifetime. Reach me through Women's Fund. I would be glad to tell you more about making a donation that impacts lives for more than a lifetime.
