Women making a difference locally
Welcome to the Flamborough-Waterdown Chapter of 100 Women Who Care!
We bring together 100 (or more) women in Flamborough-Waterdown who care about local community causes and who are committed to community service. This chapter was founded in May 2018 by Doris Valade with the help of Lena Aggus, Heather Kane and Meghan Hughes.
We have 4 meetings per year, and each meeting will be for one hour. Each member will bring a check for $100 to each meeting. We will have a presentation from 2-3 local charities, and then a majority vote at the end of the meeting will determine which charity will receive our donations.
Our goal is 100 women = a total donation of $10,000 at each meeting. Together we can make a difference in our community!
Our meeting schedule is as follows:
Wednesday January 18, 2023 - 7:00PM to 8:00PM
Wednesday, April 19, 2023 - 7:00PM to 8:00PM
Wednesday, June 14, 2023 - 7:00PM to 8:00PM
Wednesday, September 20, 2023 - 7:00PM to 8:00PM
Latest news:
October 31, 2022 Our 4th and final meeting for 2022 was on Wednesday, September 21st at the Waterdown Legion. This was a hybrid meeting of both in person and zoom and it was wonderful to see so many of our members in person again!! We had presentations from 3 very deserving charities, and once all of the votes were counted, we announced that CAMA Woodlands Resident Wish Fund was selected to receive our donations. CAMA Woodlands is a 128-bed charitable long-term care home located in Burlington, and very close to the Hamilton (Waterdown) border (and they have many residents from the Flamborough area). Bev Bednis made the presentation, and she told us about the dire need by CAMA Woodlands for a resident’s bus, and that our donations would go a long way to making that happen!
