The Women’s Foundation of Boston is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that creates, funds, and accelerates programs that equip Boston women and girls to be financially independent, successful, and valued leaders in their communities. We aspire to be the central vehicle for investing in women and girls in the Greater Boston area, and to build a thriving network of female leaders in the nonprofit and business communities.
The Women’s Foundation of Boston was established in 2017 by longtime Boston residents and philanthropists Christina Gordon, Ami Danoff and Christina Suh.
Motivated by the massive philanthropy gap in foundation giving to women’s and girls’ causes, the founders decided to leverage their business experience in investing, financial analysis, strategic planning and consulting to move the needle in charitable giving to women and girls.
