The charity group 100 Women Who Care Milton held its first meeting of the year on March 6, 2026, to provide financial support to three local organizations. The group met in Milton, Ontario, to vote on which community causes would receive funding from their collective donations. This first session of the year marks the beginning of the group’s ongoing efforts to help the local community.
During the meeting, members chose to donate funds to SafetyNet Children & Youth Charities, Country Heritage Park, and Southside Milton. The group uses a model where each member donates money and they vote together to decide where the total amount will go. By combining their individual contributions, the women can provide a much larger donation to small charities than they could alone.
One of the organizations chosen, Country Heritage Park, is a registered non-profit that focuses on food and agricultural education. The park is a well-known community hub that teaches residents about rural history and farming while hosting various social events. This funding will help support the park’s mission to provide education and a central gathering space for the region.
The 100 Women Who Care Milton group aims to raise more than $40,000 annually to help local causes throughout the year. This simple approach to giving focuses on keeping money within the town to support grassroots programs and community staples. By meeting quarterly, the group ensures that several different local charities receive significant financial help every few months.
