The Women and Girls Fund: Annual Grant Cycle
Since 2022, The Cape Cod Foundation has awarded $154,000 in grants to the nonprofits listed below to support programs and initiatives that strengthen the lives of women and girls throughout the region, now and in the years to come.
Our early grantmaking has focused on funding initiatives that would help break the cycle of poverty by increasing economic opportunity and self-sufficiency for women through trainings and educational programs and break down barriers for girls by providing new, expanded, or more accessible educational opportunities, out-of-school programs, and mentorship opportunities.
In 2025, The Women and Girls Fund adapted its grantmaking process from reactive and open-applications toward a proactive and by-invitation process. The Advisory Committee and Foundation staff conducted needs-assessment research and held listening sessions with local organizations to identify projects for funding consideration that aligned with our grantmaking criteria, values, and priority communities.
Grantmaking for 2026 will be announced in late fall.

“GLAM Camp’s success reflects the power of collaboration and cultural connection in empowering the next generation of Indigenous leaders. By combining sports, heritage, and mentorship, we provided a transformative experience for Wampanoag girls and their peers, fostering resilience, identity, and leadership. This work would not have been possible without the generous support of The Cape Cod Foundation, which has helped us build a lasting impact in our community.”
Co-Founders Isabelle Murphy, Teagan Lind, and Taryn Madsen (GLAM)
