Women’s Division
Since 1965, the Women’s Division of the Grapevine Chamber has focused on fostering the spirit of charitable giving and economic development among the women of the Grapevine area. We aim to enable everyone to contribute to the advancement of the civic, business, and educational interests in the community. We are a hardworking group of women that have a commitment to serve the community of Grapevine. Each year we look forward to helping students within GCISD by providing school supplies at the start of each school year. Each December we provide gifts and other necessities for over 100 senior adults during the Christmas season.
The Women’s Division motto is SERVE – support, engage, respect, volunteer and encourage. It is what we do each year, and will continue to grow upon and develop.

Elves on the Run 5K & Fun Run:
Elves on the Run is a family-friendly community 5K and 1K Fun Run in the heart of Grapevine – the Christmas Capital of Texas! Where children can meet Santa at the finish line and enjoy Santa’s Workshop, prizes, and giveaways.
Elves on the Run was designed to help fund the needs of local senior citizens and children in the Grapevine community. The funds raised go towards supporting both our Back to School Fair in GCISD as well as our Christmas Spirit Program for the Grapevine senior citizens. Instead of running in this year’s race maybe we could all still find it in our hearts to help others by participating in this new, VIRTUAL GIVING format that will allow participants the ability to donate in the longstanding tradition of giving by donating from the safety of their own homes.
Our goal is still to provides a monetary gift and a gift bag of essential items to each Senior Citizen household. All gifts are distributed to the recipients a few days before Christmas by Women’s Division members who are often dressed as Christmas elves!

10th Annual Back to School Fair in GCISD:
August, 2021
Since 1965, the Women’s Division of the Grapevine Chamber has focused on fostering the spirit of charitable giving and economic development among the Grapevine area. We aim to enable everyone to contribute to the advancement of the civic, business and educational interest in the community. We are a hardworking group of women that have a commitment to serve the community of Grapevine. Each year we look forward to helping students within GCISD by providing school supplies at the start of each school year.
Due to circumstances beyond our control, the 25th Annual Great Taste of Grapevine in 2021 was canceled. You may not be aware, but this is one of the Women’s Division’s largest fundraisers and proceeds are used to purchase school supplies for disadvantaged students in GCISD. This year we will be providing for over 1400 students in need. Thank you to our fellow Chamber members and the community for your help this year. Without your support, we would not be able to serve the students within our district.
