Orange County Women's Business FOUNDATION
Who We Are
The Orange County Women’s Business Foundation is the philanthropic arm of the Orange County Women’s Business Chamber, created to ensure that every woman—regardless of background, income, or stage of life—has access to opportunity, education, and economic empowerment.
Founded on the belief that strong women build strong communities, the Foundation exists to remove barriers, invest in potential, and support women as they grow personally, professionally, and economically.
Our Purpose
The Foundation was established to serve, uplift, and invest in women through education, access, and community-based support. While the Chamber focuses on business growth and professional engagement, the Foundation ensures that no woman is left behind due to financial, social, or systemic obstacles.
We are committed to creating long-term impact—not short-term assistance—by funding programs that build confidence, skills, and sustainability.

Why the Foundation Matters
Many women face challenges that go beyond business—financial hardship, lack of access to education, limited networks, or life disruptions. The Foundation exists to meet women where they are and help them move forward with dignity, support, and opportunity.
Empowerment is not competition. It is collaboration.
And when women are supported, families, businesses, and communities thrive.
