Summary
This grant opportunity offers funding in the United States and internationally that supports individuals and organizations committed to advancing educational, professional, and community goals. Available to nonprofit organizations, local branches of professional associations, and individual scholars (particularly women pursuing graduate study or post-doctoral research), the program allows awardees to deploy funds in a flexible manner aligned with the overarching intent.
Funds may be used for tuition, fees, living expenses, travel for conferences, research supplies, project costs, and community-based programming. The typical award amounts vary by category: Individual fellowships may provide between $20,000 and $50,000 for advanced degree or postdoctoral work, while project grants for organizational or alumna-led community initiatives may grant up to $15,000. U.S.-based nonprofit organizations or local branches may receive smaller grants in the $3,000 to $10,000 range to carry out programs that promote equity, access, or education for women and girls. Eligible applicants include U.S. citizens, permanent residents or international candidates depending on the award category; nonprofit entities with 501(c)(3) status or equivalent; local branches of national associations; and individuals pursuing full-time academic or research work or leading community-based efforts.
The focus of the funds is to empower recipients to carry out meaningful work—such as advancing gender equity in education, supporting women in STEM, conducting significant research, and implementing community programs that create lasting impact. Application regions span the U.S. domestic arena and, for certain programs, eligible projects may take place in other countries through alumna-led initiatives.
The benefits include financial support, visibility within a national network, and the chance to bring innovative ideas to fruition. This opportunity is strongly geared toward advancing leadership, equity and professional growth across academic and community settings.
Organizations and individuals based in Rhode Island who are engaged in Opportunity Zone Benefits may be eligible to apply for this funding opportunity. To discover more grants that align with your mission and objectives, visit The Grant Portal and explore listings using the Search Grant tool.
