About Us
The Deercreek Women’s Alliance has been an active organization in Deercreek since 1999.
The Alliance’s primary function is to promote an awareness of the needs of local charitable organizations and to raise funds for these charities through a variety of activities and social events–and to have a great time while doing it.
The Alliance is open to any member of the Deercreek Country Club or resident.
The Alliance is proud of the donations made in the past, totaling about $300,000. There is always more to be done and we continue to look for new areas where our help can make a difference.
