Women Helping Others Foundation Offers Funding to Grassroots Charities Serving Women and Children
Deadline: September 16, 2003

The WHO (Women Helping Others) Foundation provides funding to grassroots charities serving the overlooked needs of women and children in the United States and Puerto Rico.

The foundation’s priorities include specific projects and programs addressing health, education, and social service needs. Recognizing the value of new programs created to respond to changing needs, the foundayion will consider funding projects of an original or pioneering nature within an existing organization.

The majority of grants range from $2,500 to $15,000. To be eligible for funding, an applicant organization must have 501(c)(3) nonprofit status through the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and be qualified to receive deductible charitable contributions. Organizations must have been incorporated for a minimum of three years prior to application. Preference will be given to organizations with an operating budget of $2 million or less; those not dependent upon government grants; and those with greater organizational program costs than personnel costs.

See the WHO Foundation Web site for complete funding guidelines, restrictions, and the application form.
