Mission

IDAHO WOMEN'S CHARITABLE FOUNDATION (IWCF) EDUCATES MEMBERS ABOUT COMMUNITY NEEDS AND INSPIRES THEM TO POSITIVELY IMPACT THE COMMUNITY THROUGH EDUCATED PHILANTHROPY. IWCF CONSISTS OF APPROXIMATELY 400 MEMBERS. MANY OF THESE MEMBERS SERVE ON THE GRANTS COMMITTEE, A SEVEN-MONTH COLLABORATIVE EFFORT TO RESEARCH AND RECOMMEND TO THE ENTIRE MEMBERSHIP, POTENTIAL GRANT RECIPIENTS WHO WILL PROVIDE MAXIMUM POSITIVE IMPACT WITH THE POOLED-FUND GRANTS COLLECTED FOR THE PERIOD. GRANTS ARE AWARDED IN EACH OF SIX INTEREST AREAS (CULTURAL ARTS, EDUCATION, ENVIRONMENT, FINANCIAL STABILITY, HEALTH, AND RURAL COMMUNITIES) BASED ON AN ANNUAL IWCF MEMBERSHIP VOTE. BY COLLABORATING ON GRANT-FUNDING DECISIONS AND ATTENDING IWCF-SPONSORED EDUCATIONAL EVENTS, MEMBERS DEVELOP THE SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE NECESSARY TO MAKE INFORMED GRANT CHOICES. SOME MEMBERS WILL CHOOSE AN OPTION TO DIRECT $500 OF THEIR ANNUAL MEMBER CONTRIBUTIONS TO OUTSIDE 501C3 ORGANIZATIONS.
