August is Black Philanthropy Month, a celebration of the powerful legacy of Black giving and the impact that’s possible for everyone when we invest intentionally in Black communities.

It’s an opportunity to close funding gaps, advance equity, and strengthen community-driven solutions. At Washington Area Women’s Foundation, that means mobilizing resources to advance the economic security, safety, and well-being of women and girls throughout the Washington, D.C. region.

When women and girls thrive, entire communities thrive.
