Women’s Money Matters Awarded 3-year $477,000 grant from The Women’s Foundation of Boston!

We are honored to announce that WMM received a 3-year $477,000 grant from The Women’s Foundation of Boston!
WMM and the Women’s Foundation of Boston share a mission to empower women and girls with financial skills to support a more secure future. This grant will support the implementation of a new digital initiative that will bring access to high-level financial tools to the populations who need it most. We’re just getting started and look forward to sharing more – stay tuned as we head toward a public launch in the months ahead.
 
Investing in women and girls has long-term positive economic returns across generations and throughout communities. And yet, of all philanthropic giving in Massachusetts, only 1.3% is dedicated specifically to programs supporting women and girls. This is lower than the national average of 1.9%, and it is falling (see infographic). These statistics tell a story we’re working to change.
The Women’s Foundation of Boston is leading the way with a focused strategy that supports women and families, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have them as a partner in this work. On behalf of the thousands of women and family members who are transforming their financial futures through our skill-based programs, coaching, and community, thank you to The Women’s Foundation of Boston!
