 The Women & Girls Fund of the Mid-Shore provides grants to non-profit organizations each year for programs addressing unmet or underserved needs of women and girls in Caroline, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne’s, and Talbot counties in Maryland.
Created in 2002 as a grass roots effort of a small group of women looking for an effective way to address significant local problems, the Fund has grown to include over 375 donors who have, to date, created a permanent endowment in excess of $400,000.
 Campaign For One Thousand Friends
We invite you to join the Women & Girls Fund in helping us meet our exciting and challenging new goal: "Campaign For 1000 Friends"
As we look to our 10th anniversary of grant giving, we seek to enlist 1000 sustaining Friends who will have contributed $1000 by April 2013. With such Friends we will be able to give $50,000 in grants annually out of the permanent endowment. This will ensure that the Fund can sustain the positive work begun in 2003 and help achieve our ultimate goal: improving the lives of current and future generations of women and girls.
A circle of Friends 1,000 strong would truly be an embodiment of the power of pooled resources. Let us use the precious gift of friendship that enhances our own lives by uniting to make a difference in the lives of those who need our help.
