Making a difference for charities in our community
Celebrating 10 years of giving back in 2025, 100 Women Who Care - Foothills
supports local charities in the municipalities in Foothills County, Alberta.
This region includes the municipalities of High River, Okotoks, Diamond Valley, Heritage Pointe, and all communities in-between.
We provide essential funding to help organizations make an even greater impact in our community.
Since we began in November 2015 we have made 41 donations to 28 organizations, totalling $297,040.
Our group is modeled after 900+ similar groups world-wide, based on protocols
established by the 100 Women Who Care Alliance, which was started in Michigan in 2006.
