Women In Action was founded in 2005 to address the concerns of children and families missing out on opportunities for quality education and health and human services. Comprised of nine women who lived and worked in Big Sky, the founding board of directors established WIA as a grass roots nonprofit organization to help address those concerns.
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
-Margaret Mead
OUR GOAL:
The goal of WIA is to enhance and enrich the lives of children and families within our Big Sky community through a broad range of social programs that include counseling services, education programs and scholarship opportunities for summer and winter camp.
OUR STRENGTH:
Our strength comes from our partnerships and widespread community support. We work with our local schools, health care providers, law enforcement, local businesses, the Big Sky Resort Tax District, other foundations and nonprofits, and Big Sky residents. Together, we have been successfully serving the needs of Big Sky residents for over a decade.
OUR THANKS:
Thank you for your interest in Women in Action, and for believing – as we do – that the work of a few can bring great value to many.
