How It Works

A Simple, Powerful Concept

• Members of 100 Men Who Care — Emerald Coast (100MWCEC) get together once per quarter. Usually at a brew pub or other local venue where we can socialize a bit and conduct our meeting.

• Each of us donates $100 per quarter (most of us arrange this through our non-profit giving platform partner Grapevine ahead of time).

• Three non-profit organizations nominated by our members will pitch that night, telling us about the work they do and what their needs are.

• We get to ask questions (and we ask some tough ones!).

• At evening’s end, we conduct a closed vote to determine which organization will be awarded our combined gift.

• 100 members means we can award a $10,000 gift in one night with direct accountability and zero overhead. We invite the winner back to the next quarterly meeting to report on their progress and use of our funds.

• The only time required of members is the few minutes it takes to set up quarterly donations online, and 90 minutes per quarter (optional) to get together. You can’t beat the impact or the efficiency.

• The 100 Who Care concept is PERFECT for those short on time and long on community mindedness. This simple, powerful idea is practiced by over 700 chapters of the 100 Who Care Alliance worldwide.
