JOIN NOW FOR 2022

  • Our membership deadline is April 23, 2022

  • Our goal is 500 members which means $500,000 to support our community! 

  • We ask for a contribution of $1,100 for each membership. $1,000 goes in the grant fund and $100 covers administration, events, and education. Your membership contribution is tax-deductible (to the extent allowed by law).

  • The Girlfriends Fund, new this year, creates a way for individuals to renew/join if the $1,100 is a barrier to participation. The member pays $550 and the Girlfriends Fund covers the remaining $550. This Fund is made possible by generous contributions from individuals and members who support inclusion and are in a position to donate (limited availability as we pilot this).

Ninety-nine girlfriends engages women* who want to make a positive impact in Multnomah, Washington, Clackamas, and Clark counties. 

*ninety-nine girlfriends recognizes the complexities of gender identity and gender expression, and welcomes cisgender women, transgender women, and gender nonbinary, gender non-conforming, or gender queer persons.
