100+ Women Who Care
Milwaukee Metro West
St. Bakhita Home is Selected for Support By Members of 100WWC-MMW at March 2023 Meeting
At our March 28 meeting of 100 Women Who Care--Milwaukee Metro West, St. Bakhita, suggested by Gerri Schultz, was the chosen charity for us to support. This wonderful charity provides a supportive community for women escaping the exploitation of human sex trafficking. Click on their name above to learn more about their charity.
St. Bakhita Home supports these women by building a community of people of all ages and backgrounds who work together to provide safe housing and a supportive community to enhance successful healing.
Additionally, our meeting last night was a great celebration of seven years of helping local charities. We have raised over $200,000 to support charities within our communities. These 23 charities are shown in the list on the right side of this page.
O’Donoghue’s provided fruit, vegetables, and pizza for our members. Peter Mol, Artistic Associate and Director of Education at the Sharon Lynne Wilson Center for the Arts, gave a very interesting talk on how our funds helped students in our communities learn more about music and art.
