The organization is made up of approximately 40 women whose goal is to raise money for their charities: Foothill’s Gateway, Inc and the Namaqua Center. A diverse group, ranging from professional to homemakers, they enjoy sharing their talents with hard work and experiencing the satisfaction of assembling the fundraising events and succeeding in supporting the two organizations. Last year, the group was able to raise $64,000 at the Taste of Loveland.
