Chapter Profiles

 

Belles of St. Trinian's – Contact Regent Ann Edwards bellesofst.trinians@dbeinpa.org

 

The Belles’ are a small, but inviting chapter – a mixture of working and retired women. Between us we have a wealth of DBE experience in major fundraising events, but are equally happy holding mini-fundraisers, such as small parties and film nights. We are roughly located in the Ambler/Blue Bell/East Norriton area and hold our meetings in each other’s homes or sometimes via Zoom. We are happy to welcome new members to our fun-loving group! Third Saturday of the month, morning.

 

 

Charnwood Forest  Contact Regent Sara Lang charnwood.forest@dbeinpa.org

 

Our chapter was founded in 1950 by Jean Crockett. The name comes from a park that Jean visited in England.  Our membership consists of friendly ladies from the Ambler, Doylestown and Willow Grove areas.  We meet the second Thursday of the month at noon in Ambler area restaurants with about 10-12 attending.  We are a very lovely group of friends who work to support only the cause (Victoria Home Cares).  We have Spring and Fall fund raisers.  We will warmly welcome anyone interested in joining our group.

 

Crown Chapter – Contact Regent Bette-Jo Readinger: crown.chapter@dbeinpa.org
 

Our Chapter meets the third Tuesday at 1pm.  Our members live mainly in Delaware and Chester counties outside Philadelphia.  All of our fundraising events support our main charity Victoria Home Cares as well as local charities.  Our fundraising events include a Queen's Tea in the Spring and the making and selling of Christmas Puddings.  We are a friendly and outgoing group that welcomes all with an interest in the DBE who would like to attend one of our monthly meetings.

 

Darling Buds of May – Contact Regent Kathryn Kearns darlingbudsdbe@dbeinpa.org

 

We meet on 2nd Tuesday evening of each month.  Many of chapter members are professional women, business owners and teachers and performers.  Generally, we meet at a local restaurant, or in each others’ homes.  We tend to be located in Center City Philadelphia or in fairly close proximity.  We enjoy organizing “theme” fundraisers such as a “Down Under” party and cabaret evenings to raise money for “the cause” and for local charities.

We meet on the last Tuesday of the month, in members' homes and in public venues.  We are a new chapter in the Wayne/King of Prussia area.  Our members, from Australia, and other Commonwealth countries, live in Montgomery, Delaware and Chester counties and are in businesswomen or retired.   We believe in raising money for Victoria Home Cares and other charities, while having fun with a sense of camaraderie, as each member is passionate about their favorite charities.
