About 100 Women Who Care Miramichi
100 Women Who Care Miramichi, is a support for local charities. We meet four times a year and we donate the money from every meeting to a nominated charity. With 100 Women donating 100 dollars, we hope to make a positive impact in our community of Miramichi
The goal is to bring 100 women together to collectively make an impact on local charities in a significant way.
