The Women's Foundation for a Greater Memphis was established in 1995 to encourage philanthropy and foster leadership among women and to support programs that enable women and children to reach their full potential.
The Women's Foundation strives to assure that these issues are addressed locally in the belief that when a woman is given an opportunity, her family and ultimately the entire community benefit from it. WFGM's vision is to provide resources that help women move toward economic self-sufficiency, thereby breaking the vicious cycle of poverty.
We seek to balance the scale for women and children and, in doing so, bring them into full participation in all aspects of our community.
