The Women’s Impact Fund is thrilled to celebrate the Coalition Against Poverty in Suffolk (CAPS) as one of our 2025 grant awardees!
In November 2025, WIF awarded CAPS a $5,000 grant to provide emergency housing assistance for families in Suffolk and Western Tidewater. And the impact has already been incredible:

🏠 10 households supported
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 27 individuals helped — including 16 children
💡 Funds used for rental and security‑deposit assistance, preventing housing instability and potential homelessness.

We are deeply grateful to Sharon Holland, Executive Director of CAPS, and her amazing team for their tireless work to alleviate poverty and protect families in our community. 💙
