ABOUT THE
CENTER FOR WOMEN'S PHILANTHROPY


The Center for Women’s Philanthropy at the Community Foundation of Central Florida (CWP) offers an exciting and innovative way for women to become involved in philanthropy and in making a difference in the community.

Throughout history, women have built stronger communities through volunteerism, leadership and personal gifts of their time, talent and treasures. CWP is pleased to offer an opportunity for women who choose to give back.

CWP is managed by an Advisory Board and provides two ways for women to contribute to the community;

Giving Circles
Giving Circles allow donors to give their charitable contributions equally to a pooled fund and decide collectively where the money goes. Here is a current list of the Center for Women's Philanthropy's Giving Circles whose funds are held by the Community Foundation.

The Women’s Endowment Fund
An endowed donor-advised fund held at the Community Foundation of Central Florida and advised by the Advisory Board of the Center for Women’s Philanthropy that supports the mission and programs of the Center for Women’s Philanthropy.

CWP will help you explore different options to help you accomplish your dreams for a brighter future either through our work or through the services offered at the Community Foundation of Central Florida.
