Many Thanks for Fundraising Efforts!
Several of our member organizations have held events recently that benefited the WGC Grant Fund. We are so grateful for their support!
Women's Distance Festival 5K - August 3 - Frederick Steeplechasers Running Club
Peg McGreevy (Chair, WGC), Harriet Langlois (Race Director, Frederick Steeplechasers), Michele Newton (President, Frederick Steeplechasers)
The Frederick Steeplechasers Running Club closed the books on the 2024 race and presented a check for $23,718 to us. The Giving Circle has again been designated as the charitable beneficiary of the 2025 race, to be held August 2, 2025. Save the date!
Think Outside the Shoe Box - October 10 - Charm City Run
Charm City Run hosted a fun event on October 10 to promote membership in the Giving Circle and they kindly donated 15% of sales from that evening. Charm City, our annual sponsor, is always so innovative, generous, and supportive. We are very grateful.
Shred Event - October 19 - ALL-SHRED, Inc
On October 19, ALL-SHRED, Inc hosted a donation-based shred event, designating the proceeds to the Giving Circle.
We offer a huge Thank You to ALL-SHRED, Inc. for donating their truck and time to support the Women’s Giving Circle. The weather was PERFECT and the vibes were all positive!
In a span of three hours, our volunteer team filled 22 trash bins of documents, which equated to 5,720 pounds of paper/shred items. AND we collected $1,041 in donations!
