About Us image

INTRODUCTION

Seeing a need for energetic, nonprofit work in our area, the Women’s Club of Sugarloaf Country Club created the Women’s Club of Sugarloaf Country Club Charities, Inc. in 2008. This 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization was established with a mission to mobilize the Sugarloaf community in support of local charities that aim to improve the financial, emotional, and physical well-being of families and individuals living in Gwinnett County.

OUR STRUCTURE

The WCSCC Charities Charity Board operates under the umbrella of the Women’s Club of Sugarloaf Country Club, consisting of Women’s Club members. The Charity Board votes annually on local charities to support. This year’s chosen charities include:

  • Duluth Co-op
  • Mosaic Georgia
  • Home of Hope
  • Rainbow Village
  • Special Needs Schools of Gwinnett
Both the Women’s Club and the Charity Board have Executive Boards representing our Women's Club members.
