Mission
Foundation for Women’s Wellness (FWW) is a small, nonprofit public charity dedicated to improving women’s healthcare through research and education.
Research
FWW raises support for studies on prevalent diseases among women, health conditions that specifically affect females, and areas where data on gender differences or women in particular is scarce. Major areas of investigation include cardiovascular disease, leading female cancers, and the role of hormones in causing and treating stage-of-life health concerns such as those arising during pregnancy and menopause. FWW supports smaller, short-term studies that lack adequate support and are essential for improving medical knowledge and catalyzing the direction of larger scale research efforts.

By providing awards to exceptional medical/graduate students working on women’s health research, we not only support the research itself but also build the experience and commitment of future stellar physician-scientists.
