DESERT WOMEN IN PHILANTHROPY

Throughout history, women have played a vital role in shaping stronger, thriving communities through philanthropy. During Women’s History Month, we celebrate some of the inspiring women in the Coachella Valley and neighboring desert communities who are making a lasting impact through their generosity, leadership, and dedication. Their contributions to IECF uplift lives, create opportunities and pave the way for a brighter future. Click each photo to be inspired by our incredible donors!
