She heard about 100 Women Who Care from her sister who attended one chapter meeting near her hometown in Canada. Her sister was very impressed with the meeting and shared enthusiastically the philanthropy approach. Inspired by the model of 100 Women Who Care, she shared the idea with her friend, Ali Cuthbert who was instantly taken in by the idea too. Both women went on to cofound a similar chapter in Singapore in 2015, driven by their desire to contribute more to the local community.
