Women's Giving Circle of Howard County - 20 Years, 20 Stories

Picture
Throughout 2022 the WGC has celebrated our 20th Anniversary through our grantmaking, fundraising, events ... and, through our storytelling.

WGC's "20 Years, 20 Stories" is a series of 20 stories that highlight our impact and efforts the past two decades.

These 20 stories are among many that have made the WGC what it is today, and are representative of the efforts of 1,600+ women who have chosen to pool our dollars to have a greater impact together than we might otherwise have alone. We have collectively supported numerous nonprofit partners who are focused on women and girls and have engaged many along the way to try and make a difference.  

We hope you enjoy these 20 stories that highlight the work we've done together the last 20 years -  click on each image below to read each story in full. Thank you for being a part of it!
