Fundraising

The club sponsors three major fundraisers each year. They are Fashion Show, Red, White, and Green Auction, and Over the Tabletop. Money raised through these projects is used for our Scholarship Fund to give $2,000 scholarships to women who are working and going back to school.  We also donate money throughout the year to many worthy organizations in the community such as:  Ada Jenkins, Lake Norman Free Clinic, Life Span, Huntersville Free Dental Clinic, Solomon House, Hope House, and Dove House.

Fall Fashion Show Extravaganza – This show is held in October and kicks off our fundraising efforts. Chico’s, Steinmart, and Cold Water Creek have been shown in the past. This year, our fashions are by Dillard’s Department Store. Attendees are dazzled by holiday fashions, gift baskets to bid on in silent auction, live auctions, and many, many door prizes to be given away Did we mention the wonderful gift bags that every participant will receive?  It is a night of fun, glamour, and raising money for the Education Department and the many scholarships that they give out at the end of the year

Red, White, & Green Live Auction – In December, there is no guest speaker Our holiday program involves all members They are asked to bring something $10 or more in a red, green, or white bag to be auctioned off by President Denise Carter Members bid according to what they would like to donate to the club in support of the many projects that are done in the communities A lot of fun, a lot of money Don’t be surprised if you spend $35 on a homegrown tomato.

Cookbooks – What good club doesn’t have a great cookbook?  Ours is fabulous with tested recipes from many members It also is named for our original name Huntersville Woman’s Club in honor of those members Contact us for a great gift.
