It’s a federation of social clubs for women. Their meetings have guest lecturers, they bake pies, and so on. You might as well expect the government to fund the Scouts.
They do in certain instances lmao https://www.girlscouts.org/en/support-us/donate/our-partners/DOL.html
Grants and tax incentives for organizations and such are contingent on various factors, the implication here is obviously that there is some negative ramification (likely financially) for not adhereing to what a "woman" is according to the law in relation to their status as a "legally recognized womens organization and charity".
You're using a UK domain so here's one from the UK lol https://www.scouts.org.uk/volunteers/running-things-locally/grants-and-funds-for-your-local-group/grants-from-uk-scouts/uniformed-youth-fund/
