Women's Funding Coalition

Hide Profile

The Women's Funding Coalition (WFC) was established in 1981 and was envisioned as a "United Way" to fund women's organizations through payroll deductions, and represented over thirty community and women's organizations in New York City. The coalition intended to conduct special events to raise money, but its primary efforts were focused on opening the doors of industry and government, and on expanding efforts begun by other groups to broaden the choices of charities available to employees.
