In addition to educational grants, FFW sponsors grants that address the health and wellness needs of girls and women in the Southern Tier.

Cancer Care Grants – Up to $500 in financial assistance are awarded on a rolling basis throughout the year to individual women currently receiving medical treatment for cancer to address ANY barriers that prevent them from safely continuing on their recovery journey and increasing their strength and self-confidence.
