WOMEN HELPING WOMENWHO WE HELP
Every 2 years the club holds an open call for funding applications to local charities serving women and children. From these applications club members vote on who to support with our fundraising efforts.
ANNUALLY
85% of funds raised go directly to our selected local charity
10% of funds raised go to the FAWCO Foundation and their Target Project
5% of funds raised are carried over for the next charity so they can hit the ground running
