The Fund for Homeless Women is a field of interest fund of the Community Foundation for Monterey County. montereycountygives.com/fhw Often, these women blend seamlessly into our community, and you might never know they are without shelter. Many sleep in cars, tents, or benches, while still going to work, attending school, and contributing to the fabric of our community—often under the radar. The Fund for Homeless Women provides the expertise to leverage the power of your gift to create lasting impact, targeting the unique needs of unaccompanied homeless women in our area. By donating through Monterey County Gives! before December 31st, your gift goes even further, with a portion of all donations matched to amplify its reach. They are a mosaic of all of us. They are our neighbors, our sisters, our mothers, our grandmothers. Now – Dec. 31, 2025 SEEDS OF CHANGE 8 days 213 nonprofits Goals for 2025 8,000 donors $14,000,000 in donations HOW TO DONATE 1.
