The Zonta Foundation of SWFL and the Zonta Club of Sanibel-Captiva invite 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations dedicated to the empowerment of women and girls to apply for a 2027 grant. Grants Committee co-chairs Kathleen Skubikowski and Megan Galgano note that the Zonta Foundation strives to “Focus on supporting women to claim their rights as individuals through training, education, and access to healthcare and affordable housing.”
Skubikowski states that “Grant applications must focus on one or more of these aspects of empowering women and girls in Lee County.” Galgano adds, “We know that many wonderful organizations are doing amazing work, and Zonta wants to recognize and support that work.”
Previous grant recipients and new Lee County non-profit applicants are encouraged to request funding for ongoing or new projects. Zonta is non-sectarian and cannot consider applications from faith-based or religious organizations. Visit zontasancap.org for this year’s application.
Applications are due by September 14, 2026. Grants will be awarded in January 2027. To support the work of the Zonta Foundation of SWFL, visit zontasancap.org and click on “Donate.”
