Empowering women through education in Southwest Washington
Woman of Wonder awards scholarships to women in Clark County and surrounding communities, helping them pursue education and transform their futures.
Woman of Wonder has been championing local women since 2018, serving Vancouver, Camas, Longview, and communities throughout Southwest Washington. We've awarded over 50 scholarships to full-time and part-time students right here in our backyard, because we believe the best investment we can make is in our own neighbors.
We serve Vancouver, Camas, Longview, and surrounding communities in Clark and Cowlitz Counties. Woman of Wonder is Southwest Washington's dedicated source for women's college scholarships, with awards ranging from $1,500 to $2,200.
Based in Vancouver, WA, we're not just rooted in this community—we're absolutely crazy about it. Every scholarship we award stays local, which means every dollar you give comes back to Southwest Washington in the form of educated, empowered women who make our region more vibrant, innovative, and thriving.
That's over 50 scholarships, and counting, women who are out there right now using their critical thinking skills to build businesses, serve patients, teach kids, lead organizations, and volunteer at nonprofits like Woman of Wonder, proving that when donations to a 501(c)(3) are used to invest in local women (that’s our lane!), everybody wins.
Charitable donors for women's education: your impact starts here
You want your charitable dollars to do something. Not disappear into administrative budgets or fund programs that sound impressive but are hard to decipher. You want to change lives. Real lives. Right here in Southwest Washington.
That's exactly what happens when charitable donors for women's education choose Woman of Wonder.
Your Tax-Deductible Donation Stays Local
Here's what makes us different: every single scholarship we award stays in Clark County and the surrounding communities. When you donate to women's scholarships in Southwest Washington through our 501(c)(3), you're not funding someone halfway across the country (though that's lovely too). You're investing in the single mom checking out groceries at your local Fred Meyer, or the woman who dreams of becoming a nurse. The woman serving your coffee at River Maiden who is one semester away from her teaching degree. It’s a gift of education for your neighbor. Your community.
And yes, your gift to women's education is fully tax-deductible because we're a verified 501(c)(3) women's scholarships organization based right here in Vancouver, WA. We'll send you a tax receipt faster than you can say "charitable deduction." (Well, maybe not THAT fast; we’re all volunteers with jobs that pay the bills).
More Than a One-Time Gift
Whether you're exploring corporate giving opportunities for women's education, considering legacy giving to women's scholarships in Washington State, or simply want to make a one-time donation that counts, we're here to walk you through the generosity process. We work with workplace giving programs like Benevity, accept monthly donations, and our corporate giving specialist can connect with you (or your financial advisor) about creating a lasting impact through planned giving.
Here's where we partner with you, charitable donors for women's education who choose Woman of Wonder: don't just write checks and walk away. They write a new chapter in someone’s life, and we share updates so you know we’re working as hard as your dollars to make a difference.
Since 2018, we've awarded over 50 scholarships to women who are out there building businesses, teaching kids, healing patients, or still studying to complete their last credit hour, and yes—paying it forward.
