Story
The XX Fund launched seven years ago, and its members have invested almost $1 million into women-led organizations striving for gender justice and equity for women and girls in Los Angeles. Help The XX Fund cross that $1 million mark, and 10 diverse women's organizations will increase their impact in communities across our city. Join, renew, and vote for the grant winners today!
Since the onset of COVID, the finalist organizations have remained on the frontlines, mobilizing urgently needed services, sponsoring new state laws and protections for workers, housing, and maternal health through advocacy, and creating each-one-lift-one support systems for and by women or girls. These organizations are digging deep to confront the disproportional impacts on women or girls' education, housing, employment, mental health, reproductive health, resilience to the justice system, and safety from violence. They elevate women's leadership from within communities of color, senior women, immigrant women, teen women, and Black trans women, challenging inequity's toll on women & girls, and changing the future for all of us.

You'll receive the link to vote for ten winners where you can see 3-minute videos and descriptions about each of them. The winners will get $15,000 each, and we will all come together to celebrate the organizations at a reception at the Mayor's residence in January 2022.
