100+ Women Who Care — Registration Now Open!

This one‑hour, high‑impact event brings women together to raise significant and immediate support for nonprofits addressing real needs in our community.

Since launching our local chapter in 2016, 100+ Women Who Care has raised $171,000 in just 10 hours of gathering together. This incredible impact is thanks to the collective generosity of women who show up, give, and lift up the work happening in Otsego County. 

 

Access to safe, attainable housing is essential for a thriving community, yet many Otsego County residents are being priced out. Through leadership, collaboration, and strategic investment, the Otsego Community Foundation helped launch and support the Otsego Housing Task Force to address this growing challenge.

Otsego County students are college‑ready, but far fewer have historically enrolled in or completed post‑secondary education. By investing in the Otsego Career Access Network, the Otsego Community Foundation is helping close that gap—boosting enrollment, increasing completion, and strengthening the county’s workforce for the future.
