About
The Women’s Fund of the Blue Ridge (WFBR) is a collective giving organization formed and sustained by a group of women philanthropists striving to make a positive impact on the lives of women and girls in Ashe, Avery, and Watauga Counties, North Carolina. WFBR believes all women have the right to equity, safety, opportunity, and self-determination in every aspect of their lives. We recognize our role as a leader in our community by working to achieve these goals through grantmaking, advocacy, and community building.
We believe all women can embrace who they are,
can define their future, and can change the world.
Our Mission
We create positive change for women and girls in the High Country through collective giving.
