About the Dierdre Ware Leaders Scholarship (DWLS)
Thank You for Your Interest
Building Equity. Seeding Change. Investing in the Future.
At DWFO, giving isn’t just what we do—it’s who we are. Through our Community Giving & Grantmaking initiative, we reinvest in the dreams, needs, and voices of the communities we serve. Whether it's supporting students through the Dierdre Ware Leaders Scholarship (DWLS) or collaborating with grassroots nonprofits on the frontlines, every dollar given becomes a seed planted toward transformation.
Our goal is to build a pipeline of support that empowers changemakers—especially those historically excluded from traditional funding spaces. We provide microgrants, scholarships, and direct support to individuals and organizations aligned with our mission of healing, equity, and leadership.
This isn’t charity—it’s community reinvestment. And we invite you to be part of it.
Coming soon: Opportunities to apply for DWFO community grants, sponsor a scholarship, or join our circle of impact partners.
