The Women's Fund

Building a legacy that lasts forever ---> Our Endowment Fund is the engine behind The Women's Fund. It's how we ensure that grants continue flowing to Shasta County nonprofits, not just today, but for generations to come.

Every dollar contributed to the endowment grows over time, creating a sustainable source of funding for community impact. This isn't charity. This is strategic, long-term investment in our home.

15 years down. Forever to go.

As we celebrate our past, we're also looking ahead to the next generation of leaders, the next wave of bold ideas, and the next 15 years of collective impact.
The needs in our community are evolving and so are we.

Together, we'll continue investing in education, health, economic opportunity, and equity. Together, we'll continue saying YES to the organizations that need us most.

This is just the beginning. Join us at our 15 Years of Collective Giving celebration in June and be part of what's next.

At The Women's Fund of Redding, we believe that real change happens when we come together. Our members are teachers, business owners, retirees, nurses, attorneys, and neighbors, women from every walk of life who share one common goal: to make Shasta County stronger.

For the last 15 years the Womens Fund of Redding = Countless lives changed.

Here's what collective giving looks like:
✅ More than $650,000 in grants awarded
✅ 50+ community organizations supported
✅ Every corner of Shasta County reached

When women come together to invest in their community, the impact multiplies. That's the power of The Women's Fund. Ready to be part of the NEXT 15 years?
