Women's Philanthropic Leadership Circle

While every woman is powerful in her own right, women working together can be an even greater force for change—in their workplaces, in their communities, and in the world.

The Women’s Philanthropic Leadership Circle (WPLC) was founded to engage interest in philanthropy and channel it into initiatives that support women’s leadership in education and human development. Its mission is to create a welcoming circle of women that combines its resources to support and develop women leaders and philanthropists through the College of Education and Human Development.

How the Circle Works

Members decide annually, as a group, where to direct the donated funds within the college. The Circle uses its financial resources to provide educational scholarships and opportunities and to raise the visibility of women leaders in education and human development.
