Helping women of metro Atlanta build connections while doing good for the greater community.

We come together once every quarter to network, donate, learn about nonprofits and vote on which ones to support together.
“I have always been involved with helping others and I feel it is my duty to assist others to succeed. Since college I have actively assisted community based organizations to develop capacity, train staff and seek funding sources. An effective organized philanthropic group is an excellent vehicle for me to participate in and help promote. I am honored to be selected to join.”
Vanessa Hardiman, Metro Atlanta Women in Business for Good
“It’s important to me to align with those who have the same vision of support, community, and growth. Any opportunity I get to learn or serve others is well worth making the connection. I believe this group has the opportunity to propel business women in our personal and professional life. Growing my network as a young professional is an invaluable experience that I’d like to continue to amplify, and I believe this group will surely maximize that.”
Audrianna Wakefield, Metro Atlanta Women in Business for Good

If a member has made a contribution, they can then nominate a nonprofit for consideration by adding their nomination on the post on the Grapevine page. The nomination should align with the focus outlined by your group.
3. Selection
After all the nominations are submitted, we’ll randomly select three members' nominations.
4. Meeting
Each quarter we’ll hold a virtual or in-person networking event for one hour. At the quarterly event, the three members’ nominations that were selected will be presented. They will have five minutes to present their nonprofit and then five minutes for Q&A from members. We’ll have time for networking and connection at the beginning and end of the event.
5. Voting
After all the presentations are complete, every member who has made their contribution will be eligible to vote. The nonprofit with the most votes will be rewarded with the funds.
