Womenade assists men, women, and children by providing financial assistance for basic living expenses such as food, rent, utilities, car repairs, and gas. In some circumstances, Womenade can provide financial assistance in times of specific crisis. Cash is never given directly to an individual, instead bills are paid directly to the vendor. Payments are limited to $500.00 or less per family per year, but in some circumstances it is necessary to review the situation and allow for additional aide. In order to receive aid from Womenade, the individual or family must be referred via an e-mail to Womenade by an approved validator such as a local school, doctor, church, or other area non-profit.
