WFN is the largest philanthropic alliance in the world dedicated to advancing the essential role of these funders in the unwavering fight for gender equality and justice.

WFN Receives Transformative Gift from MacKenzie Scott
WFN’s Feminist Funded biennial is a global conference powered by local action and ideas. Since 1985 philanthropic, public, private, and NGO leaders who move resources have come together every two years for inspiration, connection, and acceleration of solutions that create a more just, equitable, and safer world for all. Join us to celebrate 40 years of remarkable collaboration and action.
When women’s funds thrive, the quality of philanthropic investment grows, creating a cycle of robust gender-lens approaches and infrastructure with the critical mass to shift the oppressive power dynamics that keep harmful systems in place.
Elizabeth Barajas-Román President and CEO, Women’s Funding Network
United we are a movement.
WFN’s powerful alliance works together to develop strategies, mobilize resources, and raise awareness to combat systemic gender and racial inequality at the community level, forging a better quality of life for all.
