Emergency Response Network
“…[The WGC's Response Network] provided pledges for the entire amount of my first month's rent days later - it was a miracle. I moved into my place and my children are the happiest we’ve ever been. Thank you again and I hope to be in a position where I can help someone else just as myself in the near future!"

Young Women’s Giving Circle
In 2010, a group of high school-aged girls formed the Young Women’s Giving Circle, with the goal of learning about leadership, philanthropy, fundraising and community service.
In 2011, in their inaugural year of fundraising, they awarded their first grant for $601 to Girls on the Run of Howard County.
