We’re grateful to be part of a community that continues to show up for women and families. 💜

Following the cancellation of Women Driving Philanthropy due to inclement weather, several sponsors chose to donate their sponsorships back to the Erie Women’s Fund. Their continued support is helping make the new Bridge Builders Grant possible, extending the impact of Women Driving Philanthropy beyond the golf course.

Thank you to the sponsors who continue to invest in our mission. Your generosity is helping create new opportunities for local nonprofits to make a difference.

We’re so glad the lunches from today’s outing could go to a great organization doing wonderful work for our community!

The Erie Women’s Fund golf outing was cancelled on (2) Mondays due to weather. They generously shared the boxed lunches from the outing with the Mercy Center for Women, Mercy Anchor Community Center, Brandy’s Corner, and food pantry neighbors!

One beautiful way the community embraces the 85 individuals living on the Mercy Center Eastside campus. We are grateful to EWF for their generosity to pay it "fore"ward to deserving families.
