Creating a brighter future for women and girls

This year the Women's Foundation of Montana is working with other organizations to limit the interest rate that can be charged on "predatory" (payday and car title) loans to 36%. We are doing this work because we see the economic effect of predatory lending on women. Check out our payday lending facts.

Read about the 2010 ballot initiative to limit the amount of annual interest on payday and title loans.

Our Women, Our State

The Women’s Foundation of Montana is the leading funder of change for women and girls in our state.  We are raising money to build an endowment to provide a permanent source of grants to invest in economic self-sufficiency for women and brighter futures for girls.  We believe that when women and girls prosper, communities thrive.

The Women’s Foundation of Montana is an endowed fund of the Montana Community Foundation, which provides professional management of our assets and professional staff to run our grant programs. This strong partnership has made our rapid growth possible.

as we who are downstream from another will profit from that grantor's gift."
