Overview

The Compassion Fund Grants, provided by the Womens Foundation of New Jersey, support agencies responding to natural disasters and community crises, such as floods, fires, and health emergencies. This funding is crucial during traumatic events, including the COVID-19 pandemic. To quickly access assistance, applicants can complete the Letter of Inquiry form on the foundation's website, ensuring timely support for urgent needs.

The Compassion Fund awards grants to agencies working on the front lines in times of natural disasters and community crises. In New Jersey, this could be in times of floods, fires, or hurricanes as well as times of mass trauma such as accidents or violent attacks on communities, sudden shortages or health emergencies such as the sudden infant formula shortage or the COVID-19 pandemic, to name a few.
During these times, the fastest way to access support from us is through our Letter of Inquiry form. We will respond rapidly to your request for help.
