At WFN, our global alliance is led by the wisdom of local leaders. That’s why 51 percent of board seats are reserved for membership representatives who are nominated by their peers. In addition to executive leaders from women’s foundations, WFN is guided by thought leaders, advocates, and professionals dedicated to increasing the impact and influence of the women’s funding community.
