One Hundred Good Women

Our 2009 Holiday Drive- 100 Good Gifts
     A tremendous success!

Here's what we accomplished: Over $2800 in grocery and gift cards, many new clothing items and gifts and a huge amount of supplies for the support bags for the homeless.
Supported six families who were currently residing at the Lawrence Community Shelter.
16 needy teenagers identified through Lawrence Public Schools and TFI (The Farm Inc.) each received a $25 card.
Provided an additional $200 gift card for new families at the Lawrence Community Shelter. $200 gift card donation to Penn House to assist some of the 80 families still left on their Christmas list.

Thank YOU FOR YOUR DONATIONS!
A huge THANK YOU to our 100 GoodGifts Elf, Brandi Studer. Santa wants you back!

LUNAFEST™ is a national traveling film festival that showcases short films by, for, and about women. These diverse films embody the unique, humorous, touching, and inspirational roles of women in a variety of settings and countries. Luna, in partnership with One Hundred Good Women and Women Speak, will sponsor this event to celebrate the richness of women’s stories.

All proceeds go to the Breast Cancer Fund, GaDuGi Safe Center in Lawrence and provide a scholarship for a woman in the KU Department of Film.

  • Donate: Make a donation in the name of a friend or family member struggling with cancer or in honor of a loved one who has lost this battle. Use the Lunafest Form to send a donation in any amount from $10 - $99 and we will honor your loved ones in the program that evening.

One Hundred Good Women Clothing Exchange

April 11 - 1:00-3:00PM
at "Steve's Place"
1111 E 1400 Rd
Lawrence, KS 67046


Bring your gently used, but still in good condition (very important), clothing, shoes and accessories that you've been meaning to get rid of ... You know ... stuff you would pass on to your best friend. You MUST put your clothes on hangers. At the Clothing Exchange, select new to you and fabulous items for $1 each!

Enjoy wine and cheese, tea and chocolate, see old friends, make new ones, bring new members,
but, HEY, do not bring the kids! ..... seriously! This is an adult only, female atmosphere....

Members:  We will need volunteers to help with the event and wrap up afterward and to haul the aftermath (clothing donations) to Penn House. We usually have LOTS.  So if you can help, contact Emili. See you there!

Another great idea.....
The Diaper Pantry
The Ballard Center/Penn House has a Diaper Pantry!! Parents can access the Pantry once a month but they are currently low on supplies.  So, please consider donating:
*Diapers – all sizes and shapes but especially size 3, 4 & 5
*Wipes
Take your donations directly to Ballard Center, 708 Elm Penn House, 1035 Pennsylvania
