PARK CITY, Utah — The Park City Community Foundation has announced the winners of its Women’s Giving Fund grants for 2024. The People’s Health Clinic will receive a $75,000 grant, and the Mountain Mediation Center and Summit Community Gardens + EATS will each receive $25,000.
After the winner was announced, an anonymous donor presented an additional $25,000 match to each of the runners up. A press release stated that every donation made to the Women’s Giving Fund—from now until July 31—will be matched with a donation to these runners up, Summit Community Gardens + EATS and Mountain Mediation Center.
“Thanks to our 2,200 women members who are dedicated to supporting local women and children, we have been able to increase the grant amount every year,” said Rebecca Blanchette, member services manager at Park City Community Foundation. “We are humbled by how much Women’s Giving Fund has grown in the past few years, and we have big dreams for what this powerful group will accomplish.”
The Women’s Giving Fund has been serving Park City and Summit County since 2015. The organization works to benefit the lives of women and children through family planning education, contraceptive access, prenatal care, and postpartum support.
The People’s Health Clinic plans to use the funds to provide reproductive health needs for uninsured community members. The organization also plans to improve health outcomes for vulnerable women and children. The People’s Health Clinic has previously received funds from the Women’s Giving Fund.
“Each year, our Women’s Giving Fund Steering Committee has the privilege and very difficult task of selecting the finalists. This year we had 22 organizations apply, three amazing finalists, and our members voted to decide who would ultimately receive the high-impact grant,” said Anna Frachou, chair of the Women’s Giving Fund Steering Committee. “These nonprofits are addressing critical needs in our community and making a tremendous impact locally. We are proud to bring together a powerful group of women to support such important organizations.”
