Educate. Advocate. Activate.

Three powerful words guide the WomenGive inFaith campaign at InFaith Community Foundation.

Educate. Learn from and support others.

Advocate. Connect and create change.

Activate. Ignite your faith and passion.

“Women have been at the forefront of giving at InFaith for 20 years,” said Chris Andersen, president and executive director of InFaith Community Foundation. “We honor the women whose voices and stories continue to shape our work.”

In 2015, InFaith embarked on a listening tour across the United States gathering insights from women about finances and charitable giving. The outcomes were the same in every listening session. Women wanted to be educated, to work together to create change and be empowered about their financial decisions.

From these discussions, WomenGive inFaith was launched. This campaign is rooted in the biblical traditions of Mary Magdalene, Tabitha, Lydia and women like them who served Christ, provided for others and made a difference in the world.

WomenGive inFaith collaborates with individuals, churches, community organizations, foundations and Thrivent Financial to provide a series of half-day workshops in communities around the country. The campaign includes additional ways to engage through giving circles, scholarships for women and investment opportunities to intentionally align faith and finances.

Join a nationwide network of women who are bold in their faith, generous in their giving and passionate about achieving long-term change for women, girls and families. When talents are pooled and gifts shared, change happens for the better.

We invite you to attend a workshop, or host one of your own with others in your community, as well as learn more about the campaign. To learn more, visit inFaithFound.org/womengive or call us at 800-365-4172.

(Editor’s note: InFaith Community Foundation is a generous sponsor of the Tenth Triennial Gathering in Minneapolis, Minn., July 13-16. If you’re attending the gathering, visit them in their booth in The Ra’ah Village exhibit area. You might also want to attend the triennial gathering workshop: Bold Action. Bold Giving.)
