100 Who Care Alliance 2025 Leadership Conference
We’re excited to announce the location of our next 100 Who Care Leadership Conference will be Grand Rapids, Michigan in the Fall of 2025!
Michigan is where the 100 Who Care movement started with Karen Dunigan in Jackson, MI and we think Grand Rapids is the perfect city to host the 10 year anniversary of the first 100 Who Care Alliance conference. Grand Rapids is the second largest city in Michigan and is filled with a vibrant art and music scene, breweries, restaurants, shopping and outdoor activities.
This year’s conference host lead is Gina Ferwerda, one of the leaders of the Women Who Care of Oceana County giving circle.
“I’m very excited to be bringing it back to our roots here in Michigan. We have so many giving circles here in Michigan and I can’t wait to see all of my friends and meet new ones.”
Keep an eye on our social media and your inboxes for more information in the coming months!
