Cookbook raises funds for African women
Think globally, act locally.
Half of the proceeds from a new
Huron County recipe book and an
original-design queen-sized quilt
will help women in Africa living
with AIDS and HIV and Women
Today of Huron, who are
spearheading the fundraising.
Women Today of Huron executive
director Pam Hanington said the idea
for the fundraiser came from a
discussion last year after Stephen
Lewis, United Nations Special
Envoy for HIV/AIDS in Africa,
spoke at a Women’s Shelter, Second
Stage
Housing and Counselling Services
of Huron County fundraiser. Lewis
spoke about the plight of women
trying to survive with HIV and AIDS
in Africa.
“It made me realize, when we
think about rural women there is a
whole world of rural women. If we
are going to work on rural women,
why stop at Huron County?”
Hanington said.
“The dollars will go further there
than they will here and will show our
support for other rural women.”
The recipe book What’s Cookin’
in Huron County features recipes
submitted from Huron County and
each recipe features produce grown
in the county. Goderich artist Linda
Wiebe, who also designs the Celtic
Festival logo, provided art for the
cover and several photographers
submitted photos for each season.
The Goderich Quilter’s Guiid
completely designed and crafted the
queen-sized quilt entitled Women at
Work, based on the theme provided
by Women Today. The quilt
featuring women’s traditional work
has several women doing a variety
of work including graduating,
quilting, sewing and carrying a
briefcase. The quilt also features a
quilted replica of the Huron County
Courthouse.
The quilt was donated by the guild
in honour of World Rural Women’s
Day on Oct. 15.
The draw for the quilt will be
made on Oct. 17. The recipe book
and quilt tickets are available at
Women Today of Huron on 67 West
St., Goderich.
Women Today of Huron is a
women’s resource centre with the
goals to enhance women’s economic
independence and violence
prevention. Women Today provides
pre-employment training to women,
operates the Women’s Business
clothing project, facilitates
workshops with teenage women and
developmentally-disabled women
on healthy relationships, and co
facilitates volunteer training with the
Women’s Shelter, Second Stage
Housing and Counselling Services
of Huron.
