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
OUR CURRENT CHARITY
ZEROTRE
ZeroTre was founded in 2000 by the parents of severely disabled children who felt lost, confused, and alone in confronting their new reality. As an organization, they aim to put the family unit at the center of their work. They try to address the needs of all family members, while simultaneously improving their collective potential.
WHAT ZEROTRE DOES
Nursing help for families in critical situations
Peer support groups that help families share their experiences
Organized vacations during winter and summer to help families bond with the help of volunteers
HOW IWCT HELPS
Our funds go directly to supporting the activities of ZeroTre, helping to cover the cost of their activities.
