About Iowa Women's Foundation

Our mission is to improve the lives of Iowa’s women and girls.

The Iowa Women’s Foundation (IWF) is committed to improving the lives of Iowa’s women and girls through a diversified mix of action and funding, including research, grantmaking, advocacy, education, and collaboration.

What makes IWF uniquely effective is our focus: we use research to uncover the biggest barriers to women’s success as well as their greatest needs, and we invest our passion and resources accordingly. To achieve our goals and make the most significant impact, IWF brings together and invests in organizations across Iowa that make women and girls more successful.

The founders laid the groundwork for a strong, flexible structure that has allowed the organization to grow and change as it has served Iowa women and girls. IWF was incorporated in November 1994 and obtained 501(c)(3) status in October 1995.
