Women making a difference locally
Welcome to the NEW Flamborough-Waterdown Chapter of 100 Women Who Care!
We intend to 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 and Heather Kane.
We will 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 June 17th, 2020 - To Be Confirmed
Wednesday September 16, 2020 - 7:00PM to 8:00PM
Latest news:
All of our lives have changed so much over the past few weeks, and there are still many weeks to go before we transition into a new ‘normal’. We hope you and your families are safe and healthy!
Families have come closer together, and friendships are now by phone or video conference. Closets have been cleaned, we are sharing our favourite recipes (including for homemade bread!), we are reading more books, and our gardens are raked and mulched ahead of schedule! Many of us have found little ways to help our neighbours, and our community.
Dolly Parton is also reaching out to families, by providing a weekly on-line book reading program for children to listen to. Our 100 Women Who Care group chose Dolly Parton’s Children’s Imagination Library as a recipient of our donations. Here is the link – please share with your friends and share the stories and the smiles; Read more
