Women Helping Others

Community Association

It all started with a dream, a conversation between friends over coffee, and a dozen women willing to exchange their weekly lunch-out-with-the-girls for a brown bag and the chance to make a difference in their local community. It was a small beginning that led to great things. WOMEN HELPING OTHERS (WHO) has evolved to a force over 300 women strong, who collectively make a big impact on community-based organizations and improve life for many. WHO meets monthly — advancing the common good and strengthening quality of life through donations of our time, our service, and our financial assistance; while fostering inclusive camaraderie and fellowship.

Member Interest Survey - Print Version

WHO volunteers and donates to nonprofit organizations throughout Williamson County. We have supported them by sponsoring fundraisers, volunteering, donating money, and spreading the word that these nonprofits need help. In 2023 alone, we contributed $160,000 to these community-based organizations through membership contributions and collaborations with Sun City neighborhoods and the Georgetown community. WHO works together with Meals on Wheels, a third-party fundraiser with Opportunities for Williamson and Burnet Counties, which also receives a matching donation. There's so much to be done! Won't you help us?

Product Drive Collection for Neighbors Serving Neighbors

Neighbors Serving Neighbors is a local food pantry initiative serving about 500 families per month since 2019. The pantry collects food items and goods to distribute to families in Bartlett, Taylor, Jarrell, Granger, and other surrounding areas. WHO is hosting a drive of non-perishable items for breakfast on June 24. Suggested items to donate are Breakfast bars, cereal, fruit, cups, pop tarts, box milk, fruit cups, or anything that does not need to be refrigerated and has a long shelf life.

Family Eldercare - Fan Drive; June

The Family Eldercare Fan Drive will begin in June. We are raising money to purchase fans for the elderly in Williamson County. We will not collect fans at the WHO meetings. Your gift to the Summer Fan Drive provides free fans and other support to Central Texans who don't have or can't afford A/C. Many of our older neighbors live in hot homes with their pets, so your donation keeps animal companions cool, too! All donations are made online only. Click here to donate.

For those of you who attended the Mulligan's kickoff fundraiser, thank you so much. WHO with the support of individuals like you, was able to raise $3,000 at the event. Plus, with the matching funds from St. David's Foundation, it equals $6,000. Great Job!

However, the fundraiser is just beginning! This is an online fundraiser and will accept donations through July 31st. All donations go to the Opportunities, Meals on Wheels, Madella Hilliard Senior Center in Georgetown. Opportunities for Williamson and Burnet Counties (OWBC) is the official Meals on Wheels nonprofit for Williamson and Burnet Counties.
