Some Special Gifts to Support Education
We are delighted to share that CFUW Hamilton has received three generous donations to launch our 2025–26 Fundraising Project in support of the CFUW Hamilton Scholarship Fund.
- An original painting by E. Robert Ross – Value – $1,000
- A hand-blown glass bowl by acclaimed artist Paul Rodrigue – Value – $750
- A rare bottle of Glenfiddich Perpetual Collection Whiskey – Value – $150
Together, these remarkable contributions symbolize artistry, craftsmanship, and community spirit — all coming together to advance educational opportunities for local students.
E. Robert Ross
Renowned for his dramatic landscapes and evocative realism, Ross’s work celebrates the beauty of nature and place.
Paul Rodrigue
An award-winning glass artist whose vibrant, hand-blown pieces capture light and colour in motion.
Glenfiddich Perpetual Collection
A rare whisky crafted through Glenfiddich’s Solera-Vat process, a continuous blending method that keeps the spirit in motion — evolving with each bottling to create a whiskey that “never stands still.”
