Plano Women for Good
Why I joined... “I believe we have a responsibility as business leaders to find ways to serve others through charitable giving and acts of service. Working with other women to bring this value to life and simultaneously amplify the work of nonprofits in our local communities is something I cannot wait to be a part of.”
Kim Garcia - Director of Marketing (she/her)
Why I joined... “I am wildly enthusiastic about helping other women leaders thrive. Getting to help local nonprofits at the same time is a super bonus. I have spent my entire career working for or with nonprofits so this is near and dear to my heart. I am excited to meet other local women who have the same passions and values and I firmly believe that when we elevate women everywhere, the world will be a better place for all.”
Jen Frazier - Creating inclusive digital experiences for social good organizations
Why I joined... “I joined Denver Women in Business for Good to connect with like-minded women and network with others who are focused on supporting the Denver community. It is also nice to be amongst a group of individuals who are experiencing the same ups and downs, professionally, to be able to support each other and navigate the challenges. Sometimes it feels like we are on an island.”

Undestructable
Undestructable is a non-religious nonprofit organization that will be working with survivors of domestic and intimate partner violence on their journey to reclaiming their self-worth and gaining financial independence from their perpetrators. We will do this through an employment program that not only provides an income along with life and job skills training, but also promotes the healing and rediscovery of each survivor’s innate self-worth by creating sustainable products made from post-consumer waste. Our Motto: Reclaim. Reimagine. Rebuild.

Sherman Entrepreneurship Foundation
While talent and academic potential are equally distributed, systemic and institutional barriers prevent many students from low income and first generation backgrounds from accessing promising career opportunities and succeeding at the level of their peers. This hurts not only student prospects, but also disrupts progress towards real workforce diversity that will help companies and their employees thrive. Enter HighView, the world’s first Student Accelerator Program. We connect high-achieving students from underserved communities with the most exciting companies in their local areas to give them a higher view into their potential future. In partnership with HighView, our partner companies support students with the tools they need to succeed academically, from a quiet place to study in a beautiful setting to one-on-one mentorship focused on college prep. In addition to delivering presentations on a variety of sought-after careers, our partners provide students with sustained, real-world exposure in a professional office environment, where they can learn important soft skills, build social capital and make valuable connections. Together with our Partner companies, we’re democratizing access to high growth careers and helping to create the next generation of exceptional thinkers and creators.

Grapevine is a platform that provides our group with an online home that allows us to donate to a shared pool then collaborate to decide which nonprofits to give the money to. They also provide our group with free virtual event planning and hosting support, donation matching funds, and more!
At Grapevine our mission is to help grow the giving circle movement. In order to do that, we’re working to help launch giving circles in new areas and categories where they don’t exist already. That’s why we’re starting Denver Women in Business for Good. As we develop this group, we’ll identify leaders within the group and help them maintain and grow the group over time.

The time commitment is as little or as much as you’d like. In general though, most members will spend about 5 hours per year participating in the group. This includes nominating and/or just voting on selected nonprofits once per quarter, as well as attending one-hour events each quarter (four per year), some networking events, and other opportunities to connect with other group members. However, there is no requirement to participate in the events. Additionally, we’d love to work with members interested in getting more involved to help lead and grow the group, which would require a few additional hours per quarter or year, depending upon your capacity.
We don’t charge any membership fees, but our payment processor charges a nonprofit discounted credit card fee of 2.2% + 30¢ per donation (3.5% for AmEx). If you’d like, you can leave an optional tip on your donation that supports Grapevine’s work.
Anyone who identifies as woman business leader in Denver is eligible to join. This can be for any business type, industry, position, or level. All are welcome!
We’ll reach out to you about the status of your membership within one week. If your membership is approved, we’ll send you the information for joining the group and adding your donation.
