The Dallas Women's Foundation is at the center of a huge ripple effect.  Our focus is on lifting the community.  An investment in women - more than any other - is the fastest and surest way to strengthen the entire community.  When you help a woman, you help her entire family.  When you assist a family to break the cycle of poverty, you improve the entire community.
