BECOME A MEMBER
It's easy to join us! We welcome guests and new members! Check out the meeting—you can meet other members, learn about nonprofit organizations in Rhode Island and see how the voting process works. If you'd like to join, you can fill out a commitment form on the spot, participate in the voting process and start making an impact.
100% of your donation benefits the nonprofits selected. There are no administrative fees; there are no member dues. All money received is directed toward the selected nonprofit. We are an all-volunteer organization.
MEMBERSHIP LEVELS
The 100 Who Care model is based on the $100 per meeting membership level. While this remains our most common membership, in the spirit of making philanthropy accessible to all, we have additional levels.
No matter your donation level, joining is a commitment of one year; and a commitment to honor your donation level at each of the quarterly meetings. We ask that you do your best to attend our four, one hour quarterly meetings; if you are unable to attend a meeting, you will be notified of the nonprofit recipient and directed as to where to send your donation. There are no fees or monetary commitments outside of your donation.
INDIVIDUAL MEMBER LEVELS
• CHAMPION: $200+ QUARTERLY/$800+ annually
• LEADER: $100 QUARTERLY/$400 annually
• SUSTAINER: $50 QUARTERLY/$200 annually
• FRIEND: $25 QUARTERLY/$100 annually
How It Works
1. NOMINATE
Before each meeting, members may nominate a Rhode Island based, nonprofit (501c3) organization serving the Rhode Island population.
2. SELECTION
Before each quarterly meeting, three of the nominated organizations are chosen at random and information on each is disseminated to members.
3. MEET + VOTE
Members who are present at the meeting vote, the votes are counted and the recipient is announced. Each member, whether present or not, donates to the chosen nonprofit at her level of giving. A single donation has just been transformed into an impactful collective contribution!
4. IMPACT
Watch how the combined contributions of 100 Women Who Care RI can improve the lives of our neighbors. Over 40 local nonprofits have benefited from our donations. Collective giving is powerful!
