Wellet | getwellet.com
The grant from DWF, supports founder Betsy Friedman, building the health tool family caregivers have been missing. Wellet pulls a loved one's medical records from every hospital system into one clear view, so the next caregiver never has to start from scratch.
Slowpoke Cooperative
Our grant supports Michael Mangan's self-built West Ashley greenhouse, where he grows rare cacti and succulents from seed, ethically, stateside, and slowly. Years of trial and error paid off when his first wholesale plants sold out immediately.
The After Project
Most survivor support ends after the first year. Lindsey Schiro founded The After Project for all the years after. DWF's program support funds professional-led monthly meet-ups for survivors of sexual assault.

DWF is proud to sponsor the launch of No Limits, an adaptive pickleball program on James Island for people living with Parkinson's, with scholarships so cost is never a barrier to play.
Dippy Foods | dippyfoods.com
With support from DWF, Chris Olson is growing a line of condiments that get kids excited about dinner. When his manufacturer dropped him after he'd paid for his first run, he rebuilt his supply chain from scratch. That's the persistence we fund.
