Women of Cincy is a nonprofit media organization dedicated to creating more connected, empathetic, inclusive communities by centering the diverse voices that make up the fabric of our city.
We enact this mission through three pillars: storytelling, community building, and mentorship.
1. Storytelling:
We believe telling stories changes things. Our stories consist of long-form Q&As, Community Mix pieces, and in-depth special series on topics including entrepreneurship, housing insecurity, and more. All of our stories are centered around the Cincinnati region.
2. Community building:
Empathy is a muscle and we say you’ve gotta flex it. We amplify local leaders, organizations, and initiatives that strengthen communities, and we connect like-minded people who can leverage one another’s strengths to work toward a common goal. We also build community within our team, with volunteers and residents who are more like family than acquaintances.
3. Mentorship:
Young people must be a part of the conversation and the action. Our residency program is aimed toward college students with interests in journalism and communications. We believe in investing in young people by giving them an active role in creating work that exemplifies integrity, quality, and social good.
