The Basics of 100 Women Who Care Waukesha County
We meet for 1 hour, 4 times per year (with an optional half hour social time beforehand).
Members can donate to one giving circle at a time or set up recurring quarterly donations via Grapevine. Grapevine is used for communication and collection. https://www.grapevine.org/giving-circle/5wmhr8m/100-Women-Who-Care-Waukesha-County
Checks can be written to the charity and mailed to Laura Campbell 1142 Fox Street, Mukwonago WI 53149 once the charity is identified.
Each member commits to donate $100 or $50 for team of 2 or $ 30 for our 30 under 30 givers to the local cause per quarterly meeting selected. Memberships are for individual or teams of two.
Each team member needs to donate on their own, so that they can be listed independently on Grapevine for all communications.
Charities selected will be those serving within Waukesha County. National charities will not be considered unless the national group has a local group affiliation operating within Waukesha County.
Charities must be nominated by members who submit the charity 2 weeks prior to our giving circle. Three charities will be drawn each meeting and the nominating member must be ready to make a five minute presentation at the meeting to the members about such charity. Send charity recommendation to Jackie.bloomer@deltadentalwi.com.
Only Members who have signed up on Grapevine and are current on their contributions, may submit a charity for consideration.
Only Members who are current in their contributions are eligible to vote at meetings.
Members will have an opportunity to ask questions following the three presentations of those nominating the charity to help with their voting decision.
All voting is accomplished by written ballot in person and email. Majority vote rules. Each member agrees to support the winning charity regardless of personal preference. In the case of a two way tie, a second vote between those two charities will be held. In the case of a three-way tie or a second two way tie, the winning charity will be determined by random drawing.
Charities can be nominated multiple times until they are chosen for a donation. Once a member's charity is chosen, it cannot be nominated for two years.
Charities must agree to send a representative to the meeting following donation in order to give a report on how monies were used and other information of interest of how their charity operates. They must also agree to not use names of the members for future solicitations or give our member information for any other public use.
