Events

At the International Women’s Club (IWC), our commitment to giving back to our host country and enhancing the lives of children, families, and those in need is paramount.

Our beneficiaries

Currently, we proudly support 11 distinct charities, detailed below. Beyond providing material and financial assistance, we actively engage with these organizations through monthly visits. We support their local staff by offering consulting sessions and/or activities for the target audience (children, people with special needs, patients, etc.) by fostering firsthand experiences.

“We aim at creating meaningful connections with the individuals we serve and care deeply about.”

How does IWC select which charities to support and allocate monetary donations?

During March of each year, IWC initiates a call for proposals, inviting charities to submit funding projects through an active member of our organization. Eligibility is extended solely to registered local NGOs with a focus on health and education. Subsequently, during May and June, the board diligently assesses the total funds raised throughout the year and determines the allocation of resources and funds.
