Women Helping Others (WHO) welcomes
all residents. We are a cohesive group with
a passion and purpose for caring, sharing
and serving the extended community. Our
mission is to support existing 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 salads and make a
$10 donation at each meeting. Annual dues
are $10 and may be paid online or at the
monthly meeting. 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 October
is Cowboy Tim from Spirit Reins, an
organization with a vision for all children
who have experienced trauma to grow into
healthy, productive adults and break the
generational cycle of abuse. Their mission
is to transform the lives of children and
families through trauma-informed therapy
services, training and research.
We have some exciting goals for 2015,
including learning arts and crafts that
will be created and later sold, volunteering Woodcarvers meet each Monday from 6-9
for Faith Lutheran Church’s annual
Meals on Wheels golf tournament and
participating in the Christmas Meals on
Wheels event. We have also supported
the Georgetown Project’s fund drive that
gave financial assistance to 33 homeless
graduating seniors for their graduation
expenses. It will be a great year for WHO.
