Who Would You Give Ten Thousand Dollars?

A group of 100+ women who love Sherwood Park want to give $10,000 to a community charity!  They come together 4 times a year to contribute to the growth of the community in ways never thought possible! 1 hour = $10K = GIANT LOCAL IMPACT! 

Who Would You Give Ten Thousand Dollars?

You’re a woman with a lot of heart and want to show you love your community!  The Sherwood Park group of 100+ women meets four times annually and each member agrees to donate $100 at each meeting for a total of $400.  All members nominate the name of a registered Sherwood Park Charity they would like to see benefit. Who would you give ten thousand dollars?

 

At the meeting on October 3rd at Sherwood Ford, three charities will be drawn at random and the women in attendance who nominated them will each give a presentation on why that charity is most worthy. There’s a brief question and answer and then members cast ballots to decide which charity will get the money and majority rules.  Tax receipts are issued by the recipient charity.

 

100 Women Who Love Sherwood Park has donated previously in 2016 to Little Warriors, Strathcona Food Bank and Parents Empowering Parents for a total of $31,800! The ladies come from all walks of life and financial backgrounds.  Supporter Lisa Kraiger says they run on a zero budget by volunteers. Kraiger says, “We’re a fundraising group that facilitates the giving process and together with our amazing sponsors hope to make a profound impact.”

Their next meeting is Monday October 3rd at Sherwood Ford, 2540 Broadmoor Boulevard.  All guests welcome to arrive at 6:15pm and the meeting getting underway at 7:15pm.  You DO NOT need to be a member to come and see what it’s all about and enjoy an hour of networking with women in the community.
