100 Women Who Care Was AMAZING!!!

Have you ever been given a gift that was so overwhelming that it left you dumbfounded and just shaking your head in awe? Well, that is exactly how I felt the night that InterFaith was selected to be the recipient of a $10,000 check from 100 Women Who Care. I was speechless. This group of amazing women meet together four times a year and within an hour they select and award one of three charities a large check to help them reach a specific goal. The goal InterFaith put forth that night was the funding of 3 ½ months of our in-house lab operating costs. Lab services are critical to almost 99% of our patients and in underwriting the cost of these lab fees these women will possibly touch and help nearly all of our patient population as most of our patients require quarterly routine blood work.

The whole experience was a little bit surreal. We had five minutes to present and three minutes for questions—that was it. Then all of the charities went in a room and we waited while the women discussed and voted. I was so thankful that two of our Foundation Board members, Suzanne Laine and Rhoda Harb were with me just to help keep my nerves at bay! My prayer was, “God, you know our needs and the needs of others. Please give this to whoever needs this most right now.”

​Lo’ and behold, surprise of surprises--it was us! It was a humbling and amazing moment—all rolled up in to one. I think Suzanne, Rhoda, and I all went home that night kind of ‘floating’ on joy and awe.
To all those associated with 100 Women Who Care—thank you for believing in the work that InterFaith is doing in this community. The hope and healing we bring to our patients in the days ahead is made possible, in part, due to your generosity! (On a side note: I may just have to join this fabulous group of ladies come July!)

Women are so talented in so many ways. They have the power to make impossie things possible, that's why I have a high respect towards women who think of great things other than themselves. Because of this, they deserve an award that will truly make them happy. May it be pricey or not, what matters the most is the fact that it will make them genuinely happy!  I always want that feeling towards my mom!

It’s hard to find knowledgeable people on this topic, but you sound like you know what you’re talking about! Thanks
