SOUTHERN UTAH – The Three Corners Women’s Giving Circle is accepting grant applications from nonprofit organizations that offer programs and projects for women and girls in the southern Utah, northwest Arizona, and Mesquite, Nevada region.
Formed in May 2013, the Three Corners Women’s Giving Circle is an active and fun community of local women, diverse in interests and backgrounds, who pool their friendship, intellect and resources to effect change for women and girls in the “three corners” region. The Three Corner’s Women’s Giving Circle is proud to be a fund of The Community Foundation of Utah (utahcf.org).
Through philanthropic involvement the giving circle empowers women and girls in our region by funding projects and programs in the areas of:
- Safety and Health
- Education
- Economic Advancement and Leadership
In January 2014, by vote of the membership, the giving circle awarded three grants for a total of $11,000 to three local nonprofits:
- Assistance League of Southern Utah
- Erin Kimball Foundation
- The Learning Center for Families | Facebook
