Each member fills out the below Membership Form, a commitment to donating $100 x 4 = $400 per year, and nominates an eligible registered charity. 6 weeks prior to each quarterly meeting, three charity organizations are randomly selected from the membership charity nominations list. Save The Dates are communicated to all current members 4 weeks prior to the event and a meeting reminder is sent 1 week prior (via email and text). Our meetings start at 7pm and are one hour in length (there is an optional beverage reception to mingle and network before and after the meeting). Each nominated charity presents to the membership, short and sweet, and once all three presentations are complete, we have an anonymous ballot vote (while votes are being counted, the charity recipient from the previous event presents a donation update). Majority wins. The selected charity is announced and all members present their donation to the registration table before leaving. And just like that: 100 women + $100 + 1 hour = $10,000 for a local charity organization! Boom.
