100 Women Who Care Grey Bruce has done it again — ending the year on a high note with their largest donation ever. Following their November meeting, the group proudly contributed $38,400 to Bruce Grey Mentorship, marking a remarkable milestone in their ongoing commitment to strengthening the community.

Bruce Grey Mentorship, founded in 2015, is dedicated to matching local children and youth with caring mentors who help build confidence, belonging, and self-esteem. Serving young people ages 7–17, many of whom face significant social or emotional challenges, the organization offers steady, meaningful support that changes lives.

• Their work centers on three key program streams:
• Group Programs that nurture friendships, confidence, and social skills
• One-on-One Mentorship for youth needing personalized guidance
• Adventure Club, offering outdoor and cultural experiences that spark joy, resilience, and personal growth

More information about their impactful work is available at www.brucegreymentorship.ca.

This record donation caps an extraordinary year for 100 Women Who Care Grey Bruce. Across their four 2025 meetings, members collectively raised an astounding $142,100, demonstrating once again how powerful community-minded women can be when they come together with a shared purpose.

100 Women Who Care Grey Bruce is founded on a simple model with extraordinary impact: meet for one hour, four times a year; each member donates $100; together, they create immediate and meaningful change for local organizations in need.

Those interested in joining this inspiring collective are warmly invited to their first meeting of 2026 on March 28 at the Bruce County Museum in Southampton. Learn more or join at: 100womengreybruce.ca

A heartfelt thank-you goes out to the 300+ members whose generosity, compassion, and commitment continue to uplift Grey Bruce. Together, they are building a stronger, brighter future for all.

At South Grey News, we endeavour to bring you truthful and factual, up-to-date local community news in a quick and easy-to-digest format that’s free of political bias. We believe this service is more important today than ever before, as social media has given rise to misinformation, largely unchecked by big corporations who put profits ahead of their responsibilities.

South Grey News does not have the resources of a big corporation. We are a small, locally owned-and-operated organization. Research, analysis and physical attendance at public meetings and community events requires considerable effort. But contributions from readers and advertisers, however big or small, go a long way to helping us deliver positive, open and honest journalism for this community.

Please consider supporting South Grey News with a donation in lieu of a subscription fee and let us know that our efforts are appreciated. Thank you.
