For Donors, Our Impact, Women's Giving Fund

A Total of $150,000 Was Granted to Three Finalists by Park City Community Foundation During Its Annual Women’s Giving Fund Grant Celebration.

Park City, Utah (Wednesday, July 15, 2026) – Park City Community Foundation announced that Summit County Clubhouse was voted the 2026 Women’s Giving Fund high-impact grantee. Members of Women’s Giving Fund voted for three local organizations that support women+ and children in Summit County, and Summit County Clubhouse was selected to receive this year’s biggest grant of $90,000. The other two finalists, PC READS and St. Mary’s Catholic Church Charitable Assistance Program, each received $30,000.

Summit County Clubhouse is a community-based nonprofit that helps people living with mental health and substance use challenges build connected, stable, and fulfilling lives. The Women’s Giving Fund grant will be used to expand capacity in the daily program to serve additional women, increase emergency housing assistance, and support transitional housing placements for women exiting inpatient care, treatment, or homelessness.

“There’s nothing like watching 2,400 women+ turn their collective generosity into real support for the organizations doing essential work in our community,” said Rebecca Blanchette, development manager at Park City Community Foundation.

As an initiative of Park City Community Foundation, Women’s Giving Fund is a group of more than 2,400 members that works to benefit the lives of women+ and children in Summit County. Members join for life by contributing $1,000 or setting up monthly donations of any amount to the fund, which is endowed by the Community Foundation and provides grants to local nonprofits from its earnings in perpetuity. Women can also nominate someone to receive an honorary membership if cost is a barrier.

Women’s Giving Fund members meet throughout the year and have collectively granted $808,000 since 2015. Previous organizations that have received high-impact grants from Women’s Giving Fund include Wasatch Immigration Project, The People’s Health Clinic, PC Tots, The Hope Alliance, Jewish Family Services, Peace House, Holy Cross Ministries, and others. There were a total of 22 applications for the 2026 grant.

“The needs in our community are real, and we see that very clearly going through grant applications each year,” said Ketzel Morales, board member of Park City Community Foundation who sits on the Women’s Giving Fund Steering Committee. “These high-impact grants make a big difference for local nonprofits, and it’s only made possible through collective giving by Women’s Giving Fund members.”

Park City Community Foundation hosted its annual Women’s Giving Fund Grant Celebration at Legacy Lodge on July 15, where members celebrated the finalists and announced the high-impact grant. The event sponsors were Vail Resorts Epic Promise Foundation, Park City Mountain Resort, and CVMA.
