Barb Van Winkle is a long-time supporter of the Women's Giving Circle of Howard County, and has been the WGC Chair for the last 5 years.
Barb is one of the WGC's largest donors, and has been a vocal cheerleader for the WGC since its inception 20 years ago!
It's only fitting that after 20 years of support for the WGC, as she ends her tenure as WGC's Advisory Board chair in December 2022, that we honor Barb for all that she has done and will continue to do for the WGC with the Barb Van Winkle Leadership Fund!
Our goal is to raise at least $20,000 in honor of Barb's 20 years of leadership and support for the WGC, and in honor of ALL WGC leaders the last 20 years - who have helped the WGC grow to having over 1,600 donors, a $1.3M endowment, and over $1M in grants!
All funds raised will go toward WGC grantmaking and core support as we look to the next 20 years, with a focus on WGC's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion efforts - Barb's legacy. As Barb says frequently: "Women’s philanthropy shapes the future for women and girls through the power of collective giving."
Please join us to honor Barb and WGC women's philanthropic leadership the last 20 years with a gift in her/their honor!
