Mother's Fund

The Mother’s Fund’s purpose is to support programs that benefit disadvantaged women and children in Washington County. The fund was created by the WCCF with contributions received from individuals in honor or in memory of their mothers and by a grant from the FISA Foundation.

Contributions to the Mother's Fund are accepted year-round in any amount.

For Mother's Day, you may wish to honor the special women in your life, Mother, Grandmother, Wife, Sister, Aunt, or Friend, by making a contribution to the Mother's Fund. Memorial contributions are also accepted.

After a successful Women of Philanthropy Education and Development Campaign in 2007, named in honor of the Foundation's first female Chairman of the Board, Carlyn Belczyk, grants from the Mother's Fund increased from $1,000 to $10,000.
