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
