Women and girls with roots in Tipton
County unite their charitable giving through the Women’s Fund of the Tipton
County Foundation. Our grantmaking creates a stronger, healthier, and more
vibrant community where women are empowered to reach their full potential.
Update from Women's Fund Committee
Chairwoman • JoAnn McQuinn
For women like you,
the Spirit of Christmas
seems to live all year long. You give throughout the year to make
a difference in your community. Remember the Women’s Tea last June? You helped
the Women’s Fund award its first grant to fund “Girls Rock!” an all-girls group
focusing on education, recreation and community service. The girls learned about
healthy living, self-esteem, the influence of mass media and engaging themselves
in community service. Our investment in these girls was so successful that the
Boys and Girls Club continued it throughout the Fall! In fact, just this week
[December 1] Nancy Nicholson and Esther Bagley had a Christmas Cookie decorating
session with the group.
It may be years before we
see these young women take their place as leaders in Tipton County, but their
lives have been changed today…thanks to you.
Now, the celebration of Christmas is only days away and
our minds and hearts turn to the power of giving. The Women’s Fund of the Tipton
County Foundation needs your continued support.
So far, more than 100 women
and girls have united their charitable gifts to help grow the fund to over
$22,000! With your help, we can reach an endowment of $30,000 by
December 31, 2008. Your investment combined with the dollar-for-dollar
Foundation matching program will ensure that women and girls in Tipton County
are given the opportunity to have a stronger voice. Through united charitable
giving, the Women’s Fund offers women and girls with roots in Tipton County the
opportunity to create a stronger, healthier, and more vibrant community where
women and girls are empowered to reach their full potential.
Beginning with our Women’s Tea, you joined with other
women determined to make a difference in Tipton County for girls and women. Will
you please consider continuing this vital commitment by giving all you can to
the Women’s Fund,
knowing you are giving an unbelievable Christmas gift that will affect lives for
years to come? In the New Year, we’ll be providing the details on
the next Women’s Tea, and the Fund’s grantmaking process.
