Who
We Are
Women taking action for long-term community solutions Women
in Philanthropy (WIP) is part of a larger national movement
in which women move from the mindset of charity to the activist
role of philanthropy. WIP was founded in 2002 by a group of
16 businesswomen and community activists in the Columbia area.
Women In Philanthropy promotes the idea that every woman can-and
must-be a philanthropist if the challenges facing women and
children are going to be addressed. In the women's philanthropic
movement, everyone brings something to the table:
| Ideas |
Community Knowledge |
| Skills |
Money |
| Personal Contacts |
Time |
| Talent |
|
The combined forces of long-range thinking and pooled resources is evidence of women's resourcefulness and creativity and is leading to real change throughout the United States.
That's what we bring to our community's table: a philanthropic commitment to long-term solutions-through leadership, fundraising, advocacy and mentoring.
