How it Works
It's simple.
It's simple.
We Nominate...
We Nominate...
- Any member can nominate a charity for consideration at a giving meeting. See "How do I nominate a charity?" This step is not required - just an option you have available if you'd like to see a particular charity considered for a donation.
- After the nomination window closes, charities are vetted to ensure they meet eligibility requirements. See "Which charitable organizations are eligible for consideration by the group?"
- All vetted charities go into a hat. Then, we draw three charities at random on Facebook Live.
We Meet...
We Meet...
- Each member commits to donating $100/per meeting. We meet four times per year, on the 4th Tuesday of January, April, July, and October. Events Calendar Here
- Meetings are conducted in one hour, with registration taking place 30 minutes prior to the meeting. So, plan for an hour and a half of time per giving meeting.
- At Registration, each member submits a blank $100 check and receives a voting ballot. See "What if I cannot attend a giving meeting?"
We Vote...
We Vote...
- Representatives from three charities give a brief presentation about their organization.
- Each member may vote (by ballot) for one of the three charities. The charity with the most votes will be the recipient charity.

- The charity with the most votes receives a total group donation of $10,000. Any overage raised will be split evenly between the other two presenting charities.
