Margie's Endowment for Women's Self-Sufficiency

Margaret Rajkovich-Jackson was a women who felt that philanthropic giving was one of the most successful catalysts for social change. As a social worker, it was not uncommon for Margaret to encounter families that were victimized and children who were abused. Margaret understood the variety of circumstances wome face.

Margie's wish was to create an opportunity for funds to be available to provide a basis for women and their children to become self-sufficient, ensuring that women would regain their lives and become vital members of society, even when other resources are unavailable. Today, Margie is supporting women and children through an annual grant award to the Women's Resource Center, Grand Traverse Area.
