Description
The Women Helping Women Fund at Greater Salina Community Foundation provides a way for women to support other women and their families who are struggling or may be in crisis. Grants are intended either to help a woman resolve a crisis or to provide a singular “hand UP” that helps her return to a path of independence and productivity.
Supported needs may include birth certificates, car repairs, dental care, air conditioning or plumbing repairs, and tuition assistance. The program focuses on crisis resolution and one-time assistance, rather than scholarships, handouts, or ongoing financial support. Funding is limited to women in Saline County, and requests must be made through a partner agency.
