WOMEN'S WAY Receives Grant from Lincoln Financial Foundation to Improve Financial Wellness of Women and Gender Expansive Employees
We are excited to share that WOMEN’S WAY has received a $25,000 grant from Lincoln Financial Foundation to support our newly launched Financial Wellness Program, an initiative that improves financial and emotional health by providing access to personalized financial coaching to economically insecure women and gender-expansive employees.
A philanthropic arm of the Lincoln Financial Group, the Lincoln Financial Foundation focuses on building stronger communities through nonprofit partnerships in financial wellness, education, and human services, with the long-term goal of helping people build secure financial futures for themselves and their families. Lincoln Financial Foundation awards grants to hundreds of nonprofits each year that empower and improve the lives of people in their communities. In the category of Financial Wellness, they support organizations that empower individuals to improve financial stability and resilience through financial education, skills training, and workforce development programs. Outcomes include improved financial literacy and skills, financial stability, improved job-specific skills, and job attainment.
Through this grant, the Financial Wellness Program is poised to bring personalized financial coaching to partners throughout the region in 2024 and positively impact the financial and emotional health and productivity of employees, in addition to improving the culture and overall performance of the company.
