Women Helping Others (WHO) is a new-
ly chartered Sun City club that welcomes
all residents. We are a cohesive group
with a passion and purpose for caring,
sharing and serving the extended com-
munity. Our mission is to support exist-
ing charitable organizations with time,
donations and assistance while fostering
camaraderie, fellowship and inclusion.
And yes, men are welcome, too.
We meet the fourth Monday of the
month. The agenda includes a business
meeting and a presentation from a non-
profit organization, followed by a salad
luncheon. The members bring the sal-
ads and make a $10 donation at each
meeting. Annual dues are $10 and may
be paid online or at the monthly meet-
ing. Guests and prospective members
are welcome to join us. Just let us know
you are coming so that we may welcome
you. Our speaker in June is Jill Findlay,
assistant director for the Area Agency
on Aging for the Capital Area Council
of Governments. Jill will tell us about
services available to residents in Sun
City, and provide other information re-
garding mobility assistance programs,
meal plans and housing, assistance in
gaining access to services, individual
counseling, support groups, caregiver
training and respite care.
We have some exciting goals for 2015,
including learning arts and crafts that
will be created and later sold, volunteer- at Christmas and make “Camp Discov-
ing for Faith Lutheran Church’s annual
Meals on Wheels golf tournament and
participating in the Christmas Meals on
Wheels event. We have also currently
supported the Georgetown Project’s fund
drive that gives financial assistance to
33 homeless graduating seniors for their
graduation expenses.
