BENEFICIARIES

Each Year the Women's League of Reading disburses monetary contributions to many organizations throughout the community.  In 2018,  the Women’s League of Reading raised and dispersed over $27,000 to support a diverse range of organizations including educational programs, public services, and local families in need.
Each spring our members work together to assess how we can apply our charitable funds to support the needs of our town. This year, we were proud to sponsor a community event with Mandy Harvey presented by Understanding Disabilities.  WLR supported over 30 organizations in all.
