A review of last year's vote:

House of Lazarus Operation Backpack: $10,000

South Dundas Soccer $6,500

Thank you so much to all the members who contributed, both online and in person, who chose to participate in our event this year.  

There were so many worthy causes, and wonderful presentations, that our only regret is that we couldn't meet the needs of all the groups!

Tracey Veinotte, Co-chair, Venue and Event planner

Our Goal!

100 Women Who Care About South Dundas (really 160+) is a group of women who care deeply about our community and are passionate about contributing to its health and vitality. Each year, we meet for one evening and each make a minimum $100 donation to a local project or cause as voted on by the members.

One hundred dollars each adds up to over $10,000 invested in making South Dundas an even better place in which to live!

Now there’s a winning formula! Just think of the difference it could make to our many deserving local causes. It couldn’t be more simple, more fun, or have a more powerful effect, and you can be a part of it!

 

100 Women Who Care About South Dundas is for you if:

  • you want to contribute to worthy causes in your community but aren’t sure how to fit volunteering into your schedule
  • you can commit to one evening every year
  • you want 100% of your money to go directly to a local project or charity
  • you want your donation to have a greater impact in our community.

How it works

  • Each member commits to donating a minimum of $100 to one of the charities as determined at our event.
  • There may be second and third prize winners if we have a surplus of generosity.
  • The Playhouse has generously offered to host the evening once again this year.  
  • Doors open at 7:00
  • For those unable to attend the meeting in person, there is an option to
    e-transfer or leave a cheque at the playhouse box office and vote online in advance.
  • Each member in attendance will be given a ballot with the names of all nominees. 
  • Members who pay by cheque should make it out to 100 Women of SD. All donations will be directed to one of the winners determined by the results of the vote. 
    That's how the game is played!
  • Members will receive a tax receipt directly from the organization that receives their donation.
  • The selected organization must agree not to use member information for further solicitation purposes, or give it out to any third parties except for tax purposes.
  • Each annual meeting will open with a short update on how the funds donated at the previous meeting were used by the successful organization.

Let's dream big for 2024!

If you have an idea for a project that you believe will enhance our community, it may be time to get organized.  
Organizations can apply HERE!

It's amazing what you can accomplish with an idea, a few like-minded people and a bit of elbow grease!
