关于我们

Our mission is to improve the lives of Iowa’s women and girls. The Iowa Women’s Foundation (IWF) is committed to improving the lives of Iowa’s women and girls through a diversified mix of action and funding, including research, grantmaking, advocacy, education, and collaboration. What makes IWF uniquely effective is our focus: we use research to uncover the biggest barriers to women’s success as well as their greatest needs, and we invest our passion and resources accordingly. To achieve our goals and make the most significant impact, IWF brings together and invests in organizations across Iowa that make women and girls more successful. Over the past 20 years, grants have been awarded to more than 100 organizations statewide to improve the lives of Iowa’s women and girls. IWF is the only state-wide organization working to enhance and improve women’s economic self-sufficiency.

  • The Iowa Women’s Foundation grounds our work in research, allowing the data to drive action for sustainable change. The most recent She Matters report illuminated childcare as the most crucial barrier to women’s self-sufficiency in Iowa, igniting our work in childcare across the state. IWF launched the Childcare Solutions Fund, which utilizes public-private partnerships to fund localized childcare solutions. The fund saw success across all 9 pilot communities, and if expanded sitewide, the potential for growth is extraordinary. Learn more about the Childcare Solutions Fund in our Childcare Impact Report in the link in the comments. Our approach creates real, sustainable change for Iowa's women, workforce, and economy—and we’re not stopping with childcare.
