About WOC Give

Women of Color Give is a philanthropic collective bringing women of diverse cultural backgrounds together to share common space, connect, and leverage resources that support each other and the causes that matter to us.

Today, women and girls of color only receive 2% of the philanthropic pie while making up 19% of the U.S. population. Studies also indicate women of color choose how to give based on their race and ethnicity, which leads them to bring a more inclusive and equitable approach to the giving landscape despite being grossly underrepresented in formal philanthropic sectors. This is why Women of Color Give supports, invests in, and empowers projects for and by individuals of color along the Lakeshore.
