鈥淔ourteen years ago I started this foundation and it was a lot of work and stress, I decided that after many years, to park it. I started another organization called 100 Women that Care that is similar but didn鈥檛 include the annual party,鈥� Rose Sexsmith, founder of Wild Woman Wise Woman said. 鈥淓very time I would see the women from the group we would talk about how much we need to get together again so we decided to bring it back.鈥�

The foundation unintentionally started when Sexsmith was trying to maintain her friendships and manage everyone鈥檚 busy schedules. Then it took on a life of its own.

Sexsmith hosted 60 of her friends in her restaurant, Hanna鈥檚 on the Waterfront, where they took on their first cause, a family in Lake Country that needed help. One woman鈥檚 donation inspired the other women to make their own and the rest is history.
