The Women’s Fund of Door County has announced a new $30,000 grant opportunity that focuses on the health of women and girls throughout the county. Composed of a large group of women with philanthropic hearts, the initiative is designed to support the development and expansion of innovative programs that highlight critical health issues including healthcare access, public health services, and mental health. 

“This grant is offering up to $30,000 for one year to a charitable organization serving Door County and is open to anyone that has any sort of programming or has been considering some idea of a service relating to helping women and girls,” said Women’s Fund of Door County board of advisors member Abby Grommet. 

Additional special consideration is given to projects that prioritize multiple facets including those that remove barriers, are inclusive and engage diverse populations, offer a new or unique approach to addressing women’s issues, and provide a long-lasting impact. 
 

“We’re going to be prioritizing programming that wouldn’t be able to happen without the grant,” Grommet added, “this grant will really have the ability to help the organization make a difference.” 

Alongside the initial grant, applicants may have the opportunity to renew for a second year, increasing the total grant potential up to $60,000. Grommet said benchmarks would be set by the organization and accessed by examining the success of their goals.

Non-profit organizations have until October 20th to submit their applications and awards will be announced by the end of 2025. For more details about the grant or to fill out an application, click here.
