PROGRAM
Janine - Grants for Gals is a foundation to support women who are looking to advance themselves through education. The grants cover women ages 10 and up with a financial need for educational opportunities to advance and empower women. They are "micro grants" ($100-$700) to cover fees and costs associated with things like: girl scout or soccer camp, license fees for becoming a real estate agent, or any other experience or educational opportunity. Initially it was limited to Fort Atkinson due to organization structure, but will now be a 501c3 and will expand the coverage area to Jefferson County.
