What Makes Us Unique

We are the only statewide, community-funded foundation protecting the progress and advancing gender, racial, and economic equity for all Colorado women with a commitment to those facing the steepest barriers on the basis of their background and identity. We are driven by the belief that when women thrive, so do children, families, communities, and the economy. 

Unlike private foundations, it is only through financial contributions of individuals, families, funders, and businesses that our work is possible.
