TRANSFORMATIVE PHILANTHROPY AND DONOR EDUCATION

Values based giving: how we give, with whom and for what vision. Without an educated donor and funder community, the status quo and the great divide will continue.

The 50% League’s Bolder Giving Project
We believe that this can change. Bolder Giving encourages donors at all levels – especially those with significant discretionary resources – to figure out “how much is enough” and then step up their charitable commitment. We are confident that among the nearly 8 million millionaires in the U.S., there are many who would seek to realize their full giving potential if they had sufficient moral and technical support to do so.

WFN advances this movement by supporting these funds through innovative programs and capacity-building expertise. Together, we are creating a safer and more secure world by investing in women and girls.
