On June 18, 2018 CFUW announced its award winners for the 2017-2018 season. CFUW-Ottawa is among the Special Project Award Winners:
CFUW Ottawa, CFUW Nepean and CFUW Kanata
Title of Project: International Women’s Day 2018 Dessert and Drama
The CFUW Clubs of Ottawa, Nepean and Kanata presented a highly successful afternoon of drama and Victorian tea on March 10. Enthusiastic actors gave us a fresh look at how Canada was formed from the point of view of the women in the lives of the Fathers of Confederation in Joan Conrod’s play Women Vote Indirect. The actors were either members of the clubs or their relatives. The tea was delicious and the drama great fun.
The profits from the event have been divided equally among the three clubs which in turn are giving them to women’s charities of their choice.
The event was a networking opportunity, but it also involved lifelong learning, the advancement of women and fundraising. We were also able to highlight some women in Canadian history.
