Advisory Board members at Mardy Murie’s Cabin
Womentum is a group of inspired women in Jackson, Wyoming, who practice “action philanthropy,” and believe that this is best achieved through a network of enthusiastic, talented, committed women. To make the greatest impact on women of this small town without duplicating powerful efforts of other nonprofit organizations, Womentum offers a unique mentoring program, Womentoring, to create systems change for the involved women and the entire community.
Drawing women together with the spirit of philanthropy and teamwork, this program creates a cumulative impact exponentially greater than what each person could make individually.
Beyond Womentoring, Womentum offers events and educational opportunities for the general public to increase knowledge and awareness of today’s women’s issues.
