Mission
The mission of WOW is to provide an outlet for women in the community to join forces with the purpose and collective passion of supporting the needs of women & children in Haywood County.
Vision
To be a positive, active and called upon support system for local organizations and residents in Haywood County through innovative and inspirational methods of fundraising.
Who we are
Women of Waynesville is an organization committed to supporting the needs of the community. We are the only all women’s organization in Western North Carolina that functions the way we function.
REAL WOMEN RAISING REAL AWARENESS AND
REAL MONEY FOR REAL CAUSES
WOW is made up of women from all walks of the universe. From aged 20s to 80s, from other countries and states, to born and raised in Haywood County. From hippies to those of us too young to know what a true hippie really is. We are cancer survivors, abuse survivors, and women that have been married for longer than they would like to remember. We are artists and gay and straight and introverts and musicians and comedians and quiet observers and overly loud speakers and lovers and romantics and huggers and thinkers and writers.
WOW is a “congregation of women” that has developed organically and via the women that have come into WOW. As an organization, we have learned that every woman has a place inside of our group.
AND THERE’S MORE…
In addition to being an all women’s organization, WOW has also become a platform for new relationships to be found. As women, and as we get older or perhaps have moved to Haywood County recently, it’s not the easiest thing to make new friends. We are truly like a sisterhood and a support system for one another, we enjoy socializing and celebrating life and all its beauty and cruelties. With this being said, and as with any relationship, you get what you put in.
We Are Women. We Are Who We Are.
Board of Directors
The Board of Director’s is responsible for overall policy and direction of the organization. WOW's Board consists of six members - President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, Executive Officer and Member at Large.
