Arizona Foundation for Women
Description edit
The foundation was created when a group of local businesswomen learned that only 4 percent of traditional philanthropic dollars went to programs addressing the needs of women and children. It was clear that we needed a foundation specifically to address the needs of abused women and children in Arizona. Today, through their fund-raising efforts and innovative programs, AFW is a leader in creating change on all issues surrounding domestic violence and child abuse in our state.
The Arizona Foundation for Women is a not-for-profit corporation and all contributions are tax-deductible. It is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of influential female leaders in the Phoenix area.
Currently, there are 90 women’s funds in the United States, including AFW. Women’s funds are by, for, and about women. Women raise the dollars and decide how they will be spent. By educating others about the barriers that women and children face, and by involving members of the community in the efforts to remove those barriers, the Arizona Foundation for Women helps enable all women and children to reach their full potential. AFW also demonstrates that the power of many financial contributions can result in progressive change.
