Our Focus
The Women’s Foundation of Montana (WFM) was established at the Montana Community Foundation in 1999 to provide a permanent resource for women and girls in Montana. WFM is committed to partnering with organizations and programs across the state that advance gender equity in Montana. The WFM Advisory Committee guides WFM’s grantmaking priorities and funding decisions.
The Women’s Foundation of Montana is seeking to fund organizations and projects that align with WFM’s priorities:
- Wealth and Asset Building
- Strong Families
- Leadership Development
WFM accepts applications for general operating support as well as project-specific support.
General operating requests are awarded to organizations whose overall work intentionally and specifically supports women and/or girls or addresses issues that disproportionately impact women and/or girls and includes a gender equity analysis.
Project-specific requests are awarded to and restricted to projects and activities that are targeted to benefit women and girls. Fiscally sponsored organizations should submit project-specific requests.
If you have questions about whether you should apply for general operating support or project-specific support, please call Kylie Gursky at (406)541-7406 or email kylie@mtcf.org.
