As a valued member of the Women's Giving Circle, your generosity helps to strengthen Catholic ministries and nonprofit organizations that are making a difference in the Diocese of Cleveland. Together, we prayerfully discern where our collective gifts will help most in 2025.
How it Works
You make a gift to the Women's Giving Circle Fund of the Catholic Community Foundation. Then, you join other women who share your desire to make a greater impact in our community by determining which projects to support. After reviewing the 12 grant applications submitted by the six diocesan organizations and six community non-profits, you cast your vote by Wednesday, March 19 for the causes that speak to you.
The top three organizations in each category will be invited to make a funding "pitch" to our group the afternoon of April 30.
After the April 30 Pitch Party, you will then cast another vote to rank the finalist organizations and determine the grant award.
Your Next Steps
