Back in December of 2020 we shared a story about a group of local women who wanted to make a big impact on their community. Then at 74 members they hoped to reach their 100 member goal in just a few months' time.
Now, here we are in October 2025 and their membership has reached 361 with their latest donation being a whopping $36,100.
The latest recipient was Safe 'N Sound in Owen Sound. Safe 'N Sound provides essential services, advocacy, and safe space for some of our communities' most vulnerable members.
100 Women Who Care Grey Bruce meet four times a year, each donating $100 at each of the four meetings, committing to a total of $400 per year, to an organization of the membership's choosing. Their next meeting is November 1, 2025 at the Bruce County Museum in Southampton.
