This year, ninety-nine girlfriends will fund organizations from five focus areas that are working to dismantle systemic racism, advance anti-racism, and move our region towards racial equity. These FAQ and definitions provide additional information about our 2022 Funding Priority and process. Funds may be used for general operating or project support and impact partners can choose to have funds disbursed in one year or over the course of two years. Our Timeline provides key dates for application review, decision-making, and payment.

On May 6, 2022 we’ll:

announce the dollar amount of the awards
release this year's application link
share a short pre-recorded presentation to explain the Eligibility Criteria and our process

For those who want more, we will host two Zoom Info Sessions where people can ask questions about the process.

Info Sessions will be held on: Tuesday, May 10 from 5-6 pm and Wednesday, May 11 from 12-1 pm. Those who are interested in attending should RSVP here to receive the link.

Please help us get the word out by sharing this information with your networks via email and on social media. Thank you!
