At the latest meeting of the One Hundred Women who Care organization, funding was awarded to the Hope North Recovery Centre.

 

Presenters Elizabeth Lychuk and Adam Driscoll were looking for funding for their Crisis Stabilization Unit for Youth. The money they receive will go towards providing items for youth once they’re discharged from the unit to help them with their recovery and healing.

 

One Hundred Women who Care meets quarterly to raise money for local groups and projects nominated for by their members. Members contribute $100 at each meeting to provide the funding.

 

Since One Hundred Women Who Care Thompson held its first meeting in March 2016, it has raised over 80-thousand dollars. All the funds raised have gone to local organizations to help with projects that benefit Thompson and area.

 

Any woman can join as an individual, but you can also join with co-workers and friends to contribute the $100 amount.
