We’re excited to announce the establishment of the Melbourne Women’s Foundation Development and Engagement Committee—a strategic initiative designed to strengthen the funding base of our giving circle and deepen member engagement.

This new volunteer committee will lead efforts to increase and diversify our philanthropic funding, build meaningful partnerships with aligned organisations, and create opportunities for members to grow their involvement with MWF.

We aim to increase MWF’s impact through encouraging individual donations, sponsorships, grants, and legacy gifts, while also enhancing our membership’s experience through accessible engagement opportunities.

Join Us!

We’re currently seeking two enthusiastic MWF members to join this dynamic committee. This is an excellent opportunity to contribute your expertise and help shape the future of your giving circle’s philanthropic impact.

We’re looking for members with experience in:

• fundraising and development
• philanthropy and donor engagement
• corporate sponsorship and partnerships
• membership growth and retention strategies

The committee will meet monthly during its first year, with meetings held in mainly online. Members will have the opportunity to serve a two-year term with the possibility of reappointment.

Interested? If you have relevant skills and a passion for advancing MWF’s vision of a vibrant community investing in the wellbeing of Melbourne women and families in need, we’d love to hear from you.

Please express your interest by contacting Sharon McGowan at [email protected].

Together, we can amplify our impact and create lasting change for women and families in need in our local community.
