The History of 100+ Women Who Care

Karen Dunigan (1952-2014) founded the first 100+ Women Who Care in 2006 in

the city of Jackson, Michigan.

​
The rules at the quarterly meetings were simple, any member could present a need
in the community, the need had to be immediate and the money had to remain local.
The idea was that a worthy cause benefits many in the community.
​

Karen saw people for their strengths and realized that when 100 or more people

come together in a room, each person becomes a powerful force for doing good

work while lifting up your community.

​

We are each strong in our own right, but together we are stronger.

​
Karen knew this, applauded it and was so very proud of 100+ Women Who Care.
​

Karen’s legacy lives on through the expansion of 100+ Chapters throughout the world. There are now more than 600 chapters either fully operational or under development by volunteer facilitators, which include women, men, people and kids chapters - WOW!

 
We are happy to be able to carry on this amazing woman's legacy in our community of Chatham-Kent.
