Women’s Fund 4th Quarter Ballot Results
Posted November 10, 2016 at 5:44 am by Tim Dustrude
The Women’s Fund is a Pooled-Donor Advised Fund held at the San Juan Island Community Foundation. Together, we are able to award grants to local nonprofit organizations.
In October, two proposals were made available for a vote of the full Women’s Fund membership. We voted with a resounding YES (96.36%) to award $3,000 to the Mullis Community Center’s Unpaid Caregiver Support Program to support individuals who care for a family member or friend 24/7, due to a health condition, disability or age related issues. The other proposal was turned down by the members, who voted via Survey Monkey. To date, in 2016, we have donated $14,000 to various grant projects in our community.
