Awarding Impactful Grants to Domestic Violence Shelters

Customer Spotlight – Mary Kay Ash Foundation

This customer story highlights the impact of the Mary Kay Ash Foundation in awarding 60 grants of $20,000 to domestic violence shelters in celebration of Mary Kay’s 60th anniversary in 2023. The domestic violence shelters provide a breadth of services beyond on-site support, such as legal aid, counseling, childcare, transportation, and even animal shelter. So far, the Mary Kay Ash Foundation has supported over six million women and girls seeking shelter and services on their journey to a life free from abuse.

Using the YourCause GrantsConnect platform, Mary Kay created a user-friendly application experience and effecient review process, enabling a more streamlined and effective grant management flow. A key aspect of this was working with their dedicated YourCause Customer Success Manager. Through a consultative and collaborative partnership, they were able to design and implement a successful grants program.
