2025 Grant Cycle is Open

Santa Clara and San Mateo County based non-profits are invited to apply for this year’s 100 Women Charitable Foundation grants. In 2024, our membership donations ended up creating 6 grants totaling $180,000, which were granted in March of this year. Our process starts with the Letter of Inquiry (LOI) phase, where we will accept a maximum of 45 applicants in the areas of Education, Family or Health & Wellness. Interested organizations should download the LOI from our Apply for a Grant page; that page also lists the full requirements for eligible organizations.

Each LOI requires a active member be listed as a referrer, so if you’d like to be the referral for your favorite organization you should Join or Renew today.
