Erie Women’s Fund Major Grant Reception & Summer Gathering
Join the Erie Women’s Fund for an evening of celebration, connection, and impact at our Major Grant Reception + Summer Celebration.
This special gathering brings together Erie Women’s Fund members, supporters, and guests to celebrate the power of collective giving and the difference it is making throughout our community. During the event, attendees will hear a one-year impact update from a previous major grant recipient and be among the first to celebrate as the Erie Women’s Fund publicly announces its 2026 Major Grant recipient.
The evening is an opportunity to connect with others who are passionate about strengthening opportunities for women and families in Erie County while reflecting on the meaningful change that is possible when women come together through philanthropy. Together, we will celebrate the impact of collective giving and the organizations helping create a stronger future for our community.
In support of this year’s Women Driving Philanthropy, attendees are invited to bring an optional donation item to help with future fundraising efforts. Suggested contributions include:
- Gift cards
- Wine or spirits
- Local coffee-themed items
- Themed gift basket items
Guests are also welcome to bring a fully assembled basket, either individually or with a friend. All assembled baskets should have a suggested value of $100 or more. Every contribution is appreciated and helps advance women-centered philanthropy in our community.
Current Erie Women’s Fund members are encouraged to invite a friend, colleague, neighbor, or family member to experience the impact of collective giving and learn more about the Fund’s work.
We’d love to celebrate with you!
