- one hundred women - one hour - ten thousand dollars - local impact -
TOGETHER, supporting community.
How We're Helping:
100 Women Who Care Westshore is designed to make an immediate, direct, and positive effect on the lives of our neighbours by bringing together 100+ women who are passionate about contributing to local community causes. First the group members nominate local charities that will be drawn from a hat at our meetings. The group meets for 1 hour, (over tea, coffee, or wine) and after listening to three presentations, we vote on the local charity or non-profit organization that will receive our donations for that night. Every woman writes a cheque to the selected organization, and watches how the group's commitment turns into a $10,000+ donation! Do that four times per year, and witness how $40,000+ can improve the lives of our neighbours when placed in the hands of those working hard to serve our community.

MEETINGS
Our meetings are held four times a year and last one hour.
Our sponsor The Four Points by Sheraton in Langford has very generously provided us with a space!
During the pandemic, we will continue to keep our chapter growing! We are looking forwards to our first virtual Zoom meeting on December 9th 2020. We will film the draw of our three nominated charities and post the video on Facebook. The vote will happen live during the zoom meeting.

nominate a CHarity
Once you have signed up to be a member, please nominate a charity! Don't be shy! But if you are, that's okay too. If your charity is drawn, and you do not wish to present a short (under 5 minute) speech describing what the charity is all about, another member will gladly do the reading.
