The Power of Many

$100 X Four Times a Year X 100 Women

Each 100 Women Who Care-Michiana member commits to be a member for one year (a period of 12 consecutive months) at a time. Commitment involves donating $400 annually ($100 per quarter) to give to selected St Joseph County and Michiana area not-for-profit organizations to help them meet immediate needs in our community.

Gifts can be made online with a credit card.  Members just need to ensure they select 100 Women St Joseph County as the fund to which to donate.

Please note that we’re using Donor Designated Funds through the Community Foundation of Elkhart County to relay funds to our St. Joseph County recipients.

(Checks can be made out to the Community Foundation of Elkhart County.) The Community Foundation of Elkhart County handles all donations and issues a single check from 100 Women Who Care Michiana to the selected organization. This allows the agency to feel the huge impact of 100 Women Who Care Michiana can make together.

100% of the donations go to the charity selected!

Nominate, Discuss & VOTE

At each quarterly meeting, all members of 100 Women Who Care-Michiana are welcome to nominate an eligible local not-for-profit organization/agency in need of funds by filling out a nomination form.

Narrowing down the selection

Those approved charities can be found in the Charity section of this website. To add a charity for future consideration, members can submit a request to add. All charities are vetted prior to becoming eligible. Three charities are randomly selected for consideration and each nominee is given 5 minutes to present their value to the group.

Make A Real Change In Lives

Each member then votes by written ballot for her choice agency of the three organizations presented and the votes are immediately counted. The agency with the most votes is announced and will receive that quarter’s donation. Donations are made by cash, check, or credit card.

Power Moves

The meeting ends in one hour or less. The fortunate agency chosen receives the number of current members x $100. We hope in no time we will be over 100 members so the target is at least $10,000.
