The Texas Women’s League is
a diverse group of energetic and dedicated women working to make
Fayette County a better place.
Our major fundraiser, the
Spring Charity Gala, is held annually on the first Saturday of
March. Our first Gala, held in 2004, made it possible for the League
to fund $14,500 to 14 charitable or non-profit organizations. Since
then, the number of charities requesting funds has grown, as has our
ability to fund all or part of their requests. With the proceeds
from six Galas, we have distributed over one quarter of a million
dollars to deserving non-profit and charitable organizations in
Fayette County.
Each year, non-profits and
charities are invited to request funds to be raised by the League
through the following year’s Gala. Each voting member casts her
votes for the charities of her choice. Votes are tabulated and the
three organizations receiving the three highest numbers of votes are
selected as our charities for which we will raise funds through our
Gala.
However, each year, we have
been able to provide some funding to each organization that has made
a request, in addition to funding all or part of the top three
charities’ requests. We hope to continue this practice as long as
funds raised allow.
The Texas Women’s League is
a non-profit Texas corporation that has been granted 501(c)(3)
status under the Internal Revenue Code. Your donations, gifts or
sponsorships are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.
