The Brighter Side
via KiSS 95.9
It was an evening of inspiring stories of how local charities make a big impact on our community. Thanks to the networking and gather of 100 Women Who Care Calgary (100 or more). We had the privilege of emceeing and being a part of this organization for the 2nd meeting of the year.

The recipient of the money donated was an amazing organization Made By Momma. Made by Momma is a Calgary-area non-profit organization and registered Canadian charity! They are a 100% volunteer-run group providing wholesome nourishment and nurturing care to mothers and young children facing situations of adversity and crisis.
Other Nominees Included Alexander's Quest and Pacekids Programs.


So who is 100 Women Who Care Calgary?
Local Women. Local Impact.

(100 Women Who Care is in several cities in the US and Canada)
Together: Bring together 100 (or more) women in Calgary who care about local community causes and want to help.
Meet for an hour.
Jointly select a local charity or not-for-profit organization.
Each write a $100 cheque to the selected organization and watch how the group’s commitment turns into a $10,000+ donation.
Do that four times a year and witness how $40,000 can improve the lives of our neighbours when placed in the hands of deserving local agencies working to serve the community.

Don't be shy or modest about sharing your 3 Things with other Calgarians. It's all about encouraging and inspiring others to take up the 3 Things challenge.
Think first about whether your Thing is for:
- Your Street - something like a front yard BBQ
- Your Neighbourhood - something like a litter cleanup day
- Your City - something like volunteering for a local not-for-profit organization
