Empowering Women.
Funding Discovery.
We advance women in alternative investments and fund AI-assisted cancer research — honoring Jennifer's legacy through mentorship, grants, and meaningful connection.
Two Pillars. One Purpose.
Jennifer believed in the power of mentorship and the urgency of medical research. Her foundation carries both missions forward.
Women in Alternative Investments
We mentor and educate the next generation of women leaders in private credit, private equity, and alternative investments — through direct mentorship, the Strickland Fellowship, networking events, and connections with industry pioneers.
Learn MoreAI-Assisted Cancer Research
We fund strategic grants for researchers leveraging artificial intelligence to accelerate cancer diagnosis, treatment discovery, and patient outcomes — because science and technology together can save lives faster.

The Strickland Fellowship
Our flagship program in partnership with Women in Private Credit, the Strickland Fellowship sponsors rising women leaders in the field — providing educational experiences, mentorship from senior practitioners, and a community of peers committed to each other's growth.
Applications open annually. The Fellowship is a living tribute to Jennifer's belief that access to the right people and the right knowledge changes careers.
"The Foundation seeks to empower and educate the next generation of leaders in financial services and scientific research — through strategic grants, direct mentorship, and meaningful connections with industry pioneers."
