Mission Statement:

The Sister Fund is a private foundation that supports and gives voice to the marginalized, especially women working for healing in the world from a faith-based perspective.

Purpose Statement:

The Sister Fund believes that women can transform faith, and faith can transform feminism. We fund this kind of transformation in a variety of contexts. We are committed to woman-centered philanthropy and the empowerment of faith-based women, because we believe the energy of Love heals. The Sister Fund provides grants, technical support, communication tools and networking opportunities in a variety of forms.

Some of the activities we support are:

1. Naming and validating both historical and contemporary examples of faith-fueled feminism.
2. Building bridges between faith-based and secular women.
3. Bolstering women's leadership in all sectors of society, especially faith-based institutions.
4. Fostering the emergence of young women's voices in leadership spheres.
5. Decreasing domestic violence.
6. Supporting the rights of incarcerated women.
7. Empowering women economically.

A portion of The Sister Fund's resources are dedicated to broader ideas and initiatives that help create a just and sustainable world. These efforts are led by The Sister Fund’s donor family.
