The Fundación de Mujeres en Puerto Rico publishes its Community Report and audited financial statements every year as a demonstration of our commitment to transparency and accountability.
We are the only philanthropic organization in Puerto Rico dedicated exclusively and intentionally to advancing gender equity—directly sustaining feminist activism and uplifting the leadership of women, girls, and gender-diverse people. Our grantmaking provides flexible, operational support, ensuring that our community partners can count on resources tailored to their real needs—not just short-term projects.
More than 90% of our funds are allocated directly to this purpose, fueling long-term, systemic change.
Within the framework of feminist philanthropy, our last two reports have intentionally moved away from the term “impact” because of its technocratic and often extractive connotations. Too often, “impact” implies a one-sided measurement of results focused on donors or funders—an approach that disregards the pace, knowledge, and priorities of the communities we accompany.
Instead, we speak of transformation, community, collective process, and accompaniment—recognizing that the role of philanthropy is not to impose outcomes, but to support community-driven processes led by those living the inequalities we aim to eradicate.
Connect with our work and strategic priorities, and access resources designed to strengthen movements and leadership that are reshaping the path toward gender justice and equity.
In 2024, we witnessed the extraordinary power of a community in motion. Our 2024 Community Report is a testament to the courage, generosity, and unbreakable spirit driving our fight for gender justice in Puerto Rico. Behind every achievement are the voices and dreams of women, girls, and nonbinary people weaving new possibilities for our country. This work is about hope, dignity, and collective transformation. We invite you to read the Community Report and celebrate the power we continue to build together.
In recent years, Puerto Rico has faced severe challenges that have slowed progress toward equity. Rebuilding and reimagining our future with a focus on racial and gender justice will require challenging traditional philanthropic practices and shifting the narrative. This report highlights the importance of Feminist Philanthropy in Puerto Rico and our intentional approach to distributing funds before, during, and after climate disasters.
Since its founding, the Women’s Foundation in Puerto Rico has supported initiatives that expand women-led entrepreneurship, sustain shelters and services for survivors of violence, increase access to healthcare for pregnant people and caregivers, and channel essential resources into communities impacted by disasters. We have also backed research, trainings, and community organizing processes that strengthen the leadership of women advancing policies and practices rooted in gender equity.
Most importantly, this work demonstrates a transformative truth: when women and gender-diverse people are supported, families grow stronger, communities become more resilient, and all of Puerto Rico moves forward.
