| Program A | 3. WFMN Fund for Safety The Fund for Safety continues and expands upon the investments made through the Women's Foundation of Minnesota's MN Girls Are Not For Sale campaign. WFMN continues to invest in women's safety and work with communities to address gender-based violence, a continuum that includes sex trafficking, domestic violence, rape, sexual assault, and sexual harassment. In partnership with community leaders, WFMN follows an ethos of listening and responding to community concerns to drive strategic, cross-sector plans and create collective impact. During our last fiscal year, WFMN awarded $269,843 to nine organizations and the City of Minneapolis. By resourcing the continued progress of the movement and supporting existing and emerging programming by and for underrepresented cultural communities, WFMN is investing in organizations, leaders, and the movement to create a Minnesota where women, girls, and gender-expansive people are free from every form of violence and can experience their homes, schools, and communities as safe places. 4. Young Women's Initiative of Minnesota (YWI MN) Launched in 2016, YWI MN is a multi-year, multi-million-dollar investment and public-private partnership with the Governor's Office of the State of Minnesota to achieve equity in opportunities with and for young women of color, American Indian young women, young women from Greater Minnesota, LGBTQ+ youth, and young women with disabilities. YWI MN is a seven-year, $10 million statewide initiative focused on young women, ages 12-24, from eight communities facing the greatest systemic disparities in our state. We believe a public-private cross-sector partnership is essential for systems change to occur. No state in the country has established a formal statewide initiative for young women (ages 12-24) in partnership with a Governor until now. YWI MN is built on girl-focused work WFMN has led since 2002, including our girlsBEST (girls Building Economic Success Together) program and our MN Girls Are Not For Sale campaign to end sex trafficking in Minnesota. YWI MN is driven by and with young women and other cross-sector partners to increase equity in outcomes for all young women. In the last fiscal year, WFMN made second-year renewal investments of $309,000 in general operating grants to 15 organizations serving 3,655 girls, young women, and gender-expansive youth ages 12-24. The grant period for this second year of investments is March 31, 2021, through March 31, 2022. In addition, WFMN awarded a $142,500 grant to YWCA St. Paul to continue providing leadership development and support to the Young Women's Cabinet and $15/hour payment to 32 members for participation on the Cabinet. In addition, WFMN made new investments in its fourth cohort of WFMN Innovators 50 young women and gender-expansive people whose leadership, ideas, and solutions advance key recommendations in the Young Women's Initiative of Minnesota (YWI MN) Blueprint for Action. Each WFMN Innovator was awarded a one-time $2,500 grant, representing a total investment of $125,000. Since the inception of the WFMN Innovators program in 2018, WFMN has made 105 grants totaling to $262,500 to 89 young women and gender-expansive youth, ages 16 to 24. Total grantmaking through YWI MN in FY21 is $744,850. Internship & Fellowship Program Through the Wenda Weekes Moore Internship and Dr. Reatha Clark King Fellowship WFMN hosted one intern and one fellow during the past year in all aspects of its operations, including evaluation, fundraising, grantmaking, and administration. The program also provides rigorous training and professional development opportunities. |
