About FOUNDATION FOR WOMEN WRITING FOR A CHANGE OF JACKSONVILLE INC

Foundation for Women Writing for a Change of Jacksonville (operating as Women Writing for (a) Change, Jacksonville) is a donor-facing 501(c)(3) nonprofit that runs semester-based writing circles, public workshops, art exhibits, and an annual anthology to lift the creative expression of women and gender-diverse writers in Northeast Florida. The organization operates at a small-to-midsize community scale (annual revenues in the low five figures in recent filings) and runs notable programs launched or strengthened since 2023, including a Conscious Feminine Leadership training, an annual anthology series (most recently released in December 2024), the Zora Neale Hurston Fellows program for BIPOC community members, community exhibitions, and partnerships with local institutions such as the Jacksonville Public Library and the FSCJ Kent Campus Gallery. The EIN 83-1814425 was verified against publicly available nonprofit filings and nonprofit registries and matches the named organization.
