Women's Giving Circle: Make an Impact Together
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 2026.
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 Monday, March 23 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 May 6.
After the May 6 Pitch Party, you will then cast another vote to rank the finalist organizations and determine the grant award.
Your Next Steps
Review the Applications – Carefully read through all 12 grant applications linked below.
Select Your Top Choices and Vote – Choose your top three diocesan organizations and top three community organizations (for a total of six selections).
RSVP for our May 6 Pitch Party – In this final step before awarding funds, hear each organization 'pitch' on how the funding would help fulfill its ministry. RSVP here.
