The Women's Foundation of Colorado implemented the Women and Families of CO Relief Fund in April through June of 2020 to rapidly and responsively distribute general operating grants to 501(c)(3) and other tax-exempt organizations that were addressing the emergency needs of Colorado women and their families who were most impacted by COVID-19.

Funds were awarded to 85 direct service, organizations across 24 Colorado counties, 9 policy advocacy organizations, and 8 social ventures led by and benefitting women.

A brief survey was disseminated in August and September of 2020 to learn more about how funds were used and their perceived impacts.
