What a night! Congratulations to The Lending Room!

A note from last night’s meeting:

GOOD MORNING to the wonderful women of 100WWC Beaufort!

What a great night we had…eight new members, three fantastic and passionate presentations, one very worthy recipient of our collective giving, AND we did it all in
LESS than one hour. WOW!!

To all present, I know that you felt the energy in the room. And to those of you who were not able to join us, we missed you.  It was a good night and when our totals come in, we will exceed $200,000 that has been given to fourteen non-profit organizations in Northern Beaufort County over the last 3 ½ years.  That is definitely #thepowerof100.

Our presenters shared with us about:

Pat Conroy Literacy Center

All such worthy organizations and I hope that you will take a moment to read and learn more about each. Our members voted to give our collective donations to the Lending Room so that they will be able to continue to do what they do so well in our community.

We look forward to seeing each of you on Tuesday, July 10…same time, same place.

With a thankful heart,

Off to a great start…the first donation of 2018 goes to Friends of Caroline Hospice

Friends of Caroline Hospice, a Beaufort non-profit that provides quality-of-life care for those near the end of life’s journey as well as support for family and friends, received 100 Women Who Care Beaufort’s first donation of 2018, totaling $13,150.

A letter from Founder and Leader Jeneane Ryan:

“Dear women of 100WWC,

As we begin our fourth year, I want to express my gratitude to all of you for being a part of 100WWC Beaufort and for making it such a success. It is because of you and your commitment that we are still thriving and even have EIGHT new members to add to our roster as of last night.

For those of you who were able to attend, we heard three women speak passionately about the organizations that are near and dear to their hearts.

Linda Thompson spoke of Friends of Caroline Hospice and the work that they do at no cost to their clients. Dottie Morin shared with us the mission of Born to Read and Janet Gregory told us about what is happening at USBC’s Center for the Arts.

 

Please take a moment to learn more about all three of these worthy organizations.

Our members voted and chose Friends of Caroline Hospice as the recipient of our first quarter giving for 2018.

Thank you again.
Jeneane Ryan
Leader”
