TEXAS WOMEN’S FOUNDATION

Legacy Luncheon On January 29, Texas Women’s Foundation gathered 100 of our donors and friends to honor the legacy of their longtime support of women and girls. They were invited to hear about the current steps we are taking to expand our impact, and how their continued support is driving our mission to create positive change for women and girls through research, advocacy, programming and grantmaking. There are many ways to create a lasting legacy at Texas Women’s Foundation; including testamentary gifts, named endowments and donor advised funds. To find out how you can be part of our legacy of philanthropy, contact Jessica Weidman at jweidman@txwf.org or 214-525-5315.
