Who are we?

The Young Women’s Giving Society (YWGS) is a giving circle of Jewish Pittsburgh women, ages 25 to 45, engaged in socially active and collective philanthropy to improve the lives of adolescent girls in the Pittsburgh area.

What is the purpose of YWGS?

Young women come together to learn about issues and challenges affecting adolescent girls in their community and create positive change by pooling and directing their resources. By participating in collaborative and strategic grantmaking, members also become empowered in their own personal philanthropy.

What contribution does the YWGS require?

Members contribute $350 to participate in this program (At least $300 of each contribution goes into the YWGS funding pool. The remaining $50 or less is used to cover programming expenses).
