Ways to Give

Interested in giving to IWCF? Donations to Idaho Women's Charitable Foundation expand our collective giving and support the education of our members and community.

Anyone Can Give to the Grants Pooled Fund

A gift of any amount, large or small makes a difference. Every dollar added to our pooled fund increases the number of nonprofits we can say YES to during the grants cycle.

Belonging Scholarship - Sponsor a Member

IWCF’s Belonging Scholarship Program shares the gift of IWCF with new or current members who may be experiencing a financial barrier to membership AND at the same time increases IWCF’s pooled-fund. This program is funded by IWCF members who are passionate about sharing the IWCF experience with all! When participating in the program, the annual $625 membership donation is funded as follows:

  • $125 – IWCF Administrative fee, donated by the scholarship recipient
  • $500 – Funded by donations to the Belonging Scholarship Fund, which are transferred to the IWCF Pooled Fund on behalf of the scholarship recipient

Help Us Grow Our Endowments

In 2009, IWCF established our Susan Smith Endowment Fund to support the long-term sustainability of IWCF.  

Susan Smith Endowment Fund – Sustaining Our Operations Future!

The Susan Smith Endowment Fund is our path to providing for the sustainability of IWCF – our way of “walking the walk.” Just as we look for sustainability when considering our grant applicants, we want to ensure that we have built a resilient foundation for the sustainability of IWCF. Drawing on this fund allows us to scale our operations and keep our administrative fee low.
