The Jeannette Rankin Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Athens, GA that is dedicated to empowering women aged 35 and older to complete their college degrees and transform their lives. Through their Scholar Grant program, they provide financial assistance to women who are working towards their first associate's or bachelor's degree, identify as women or nonbinary, and demonstrate financial need. With a focus on students with limited means and unlimited potential, the foundation has helped countless women achieve their educational goals and build better futures for themselves, their families, and their communities.
Founded in honor of Jeannette Rankin, the first woman elected to the U.S. Congress and a lifelong advocate for women's rights, the Jeannette Rankin Foundation continues her legacy by investing in the limitless potential of women from all backgrounds and states. Their impact is evident in the fact that 87% of Rankin Foundation Scholars either graduate or continue their educational path, 75% are single mothers inspiring their children, and 55% report that without the Scholar Grant, they would be unable to continue their education. By joining the Great Force Campaign, individuals can make a difference by supporting the foundation's mission to transform futures through education.
