On June 2, 2026, 100 Women Who Care met. The evening began with a social and
networking hour followed by a 1-hour meeting where three presentations were heard from On The Tracks, Chelsea Education Foundation and Equality Chelsea. Each organization had ten
minutes to recap their services and take questions. Members in attendance then voted on which 501(c)3 should receive the Impact Award and the Impact Award recipient was Equality Chelsea.
Kate Mehuron representing Equality Chelsea said they were truly humbled to receive the award.
"We promise to be good stewards of the money we were awarded. This funding will help
Equality Chelsea in transformative ways and help support us in developing and providing
life-altering, life-saving support for LGBTQ people in our community."
Our member donations will total nearly $13,000! This brings our total donations to 18 nonprofits to over $230,000. Join us by completing the membership form online or come to our next Impact Award meeting Tuesday October 6, 2026. For more info, like/follow us on facebook.com/100WWCChelsea.
