As a Happy Monkey Club Premium member you are now supporting the HMC Sharing Circle. The HMC Sharing circle is an endowment fund set up through the Winnipeg Foundation to allow us to collectively make a difference in our community today and for eternity.

Your Premium Membership of $60 per year will be split equally with $30 going directly to the HMC Sharing Circle Fund and $30 staying with Happy Monkey Club to allow us to continue to deliver our programs.

You will also have the opportunity to  volunteer with our chosen charities if you so choose. It is a way to truly become a part of your donation and get to know the people you are making a difference for.

Happy Monkey Clubs mission is to create a community of women who share the common goal of leading a positive, balanced and happy life while giving back to their community.

By participating in  Happy Monkey Club  events you will automatically be assisting us in meeting our mission as many of our events are focused toward a charity and raising funds to assist them.  However, you can make the choice to really connect with your own personal philanthropy by becoming a premium member of the Happy Monkey Club and guaranteeing your support now and in perpetuity.

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.  – John F. Kennedy
