This is an endowed grantmaking fund to support nonprofit programs focused on the economic, education, physical, emotional, social, artistic and personal growth of women and girls in Ventura County.

Over the past 12 years, the Women’s Legacy Fund has awarded 107 grants to a variety of programs to improve the lives of women and girls in the community.

A total of $70,000 is available and grants in any amount up to a maximum of $10,000 will be considered.
