CAN YOU GET THIS?
YOUR REAL ODDS
A limited number of grants are awarded each cycle, making this competitive for a $1,000 award.
The funder does not publish acceptance rates or total number of awards, but the language 'limited number of grants' signals selectivity. Projects with clear impact potential and strong alignment to GWHI's mission are prioritized by a board review.
WHAT IT TAKES
Confirm eligibility and project fit (women's/pelvic health focus, education or outreach angle) — 1–2 hours
Prepare project description showing clear impact, goals, and budget — 3–5 hours
Submit via Google Form during the open window (July 1 – October 1) — 30 minutes
WORTH KNOWING
Recipients are expected to do quarterly check-ins, track expenses, and submit a final report at one year—factor this ongoing commitment into your decision to apply, and frame your application around measurable outcomes since the board explicitly evaluates impact potential.
