Amplify Her Foundation is a private grantmaking foundation that supports women and girls from underserved communities in New York City to become transformative changemakers. They envision a world where all women have the voice, power and agency to drive systemic change. To advance gender equity and build a more inclusive future, Amplify Her Foundation focuses its grantmaking on Career Advancement and Leadership Development Pathways for women and girls, particularly in high-growth, high-impact sectors in which women have historically been underrepresented. It centers on trust-based, participatory philanthropy and is guided by its Leadership Network—women leaders who draw from their professional expertise and lived experiences to select grantee-partners that are diverse, inclusive and reflective of local community needs.
