A new report from the Women’s Philanthropy Institute explores patterns across more than 200 women’s foundations and funds, providing insight on a powerful and pioneering force in philanthropy dedicated to women and girls. While these grant-making organizations vary in terms of geography, assets and grant amounts, they align across a number of key areas, including funding the local community, an emphasis on education and economic empowerment, and participation in activities beyond funding to advance the causes they care about.

Based on an analysis of more than two hundred women's foundations and funds that award grants to programs and organizations benefiting women, the report, Women's Foundations and Funds: A Landscape Study (found that 71 percent were established between 1990 and 2010; 37 percent were standalone organizations while the rest were affiliates of a larger foundation or other organization; and only 8 percent were private foundations....

Sustaining Grants winners were selected primarily by a 46-member volunteer committee.

The Cleveland Foundation today announced that it will allocate $150 million in capital for social impact investing by the end of 2022. The foundation defines social impact investments as opportunities that align social good with financial return to bring about social change.

The foundation’s social impact investing program consists of four primary vehicles:

They can provide fast and flexible capital, while encouraging an organization to consider multi-year planning. Unlike loans, they are forgivable if needed, and from the foundation’s perspective, provide a source of recyclable capital that compliments traditional grantmaking.
  
  
• Program Related Investments (PRIs) are below market-rate loans, equity investments, and bank deposits or debt guarantees that are used to fill capital gaps and address community issues. As...
