About Wyoming Women's Foundation

The Wyoming Women's Foundation, based in Laramie, WY, is a statewide leader dedicated to advancing economic opportunities for women and girls across Wyoming. Since its establishment in 1999, WYWF has operated as part of the Wyoming Community Foundation's family of funds, directing strategic grants and initiatives toward lasting economic change. The foundation's grantmaking focuses specifically on investing in the economic self-sufficiency of women and creating meaningful opportunities for girls throughout the state. WYWF leverages its endowment to support programs and initiatives that generate measurable, long-term impact across Wyoming's communities. The foundation provides access to innovative tools such as the Self-Sufficiency Calculator, which helps individuals and families understand the true cost of living based on family composition and location. Additionally, WYWF addresses critical economic equity issues, including wage gap disparities that have persisted in Wyoming, and promotes women's participation in elected roles. The foundation also manages unique programs like the Wyoming Women's Antelope Hunt, founded in 2013 as a platform for mentoring and skill-building that honors Wyoming's cultural traditions while advancing economic independence. Guided by a volunteer board that sets granting and advocacy direction, WYWF combines data-driven research with community engagement to tackle systemic barriers facing women and girls in Wyoming.
