Girls Incorporated
of Greater Indianapolis
"While monetary support is always critical to any organization's success, we have been particularly appreciative of the thoughtfulness behind Women's Fund's support of Girls Inc. Jennifer and her staff ask timely questions to help them determine how support from Women's Fund might be best positioned at any given time. Sometimes their conversations lead them to direct their funding towards core operating support, or sustainable capacity building efforts so that we may become better positioned to serve girls in greater Indianapolis. We value this unique relationship with Women's Fund and are grateful for its strategic support of our mission to inspire all girls to be strong, smart, and bold!"
Patricia Wachtel
President and CEO
