100 Women Who Care Meets Monday, October 21
100 Women Who Care will hold our next meeting on Monday, October 21 at La Cason Hotel in the 4th floor meeting room. In spite of our name, we welcome men to join us!
How Do We Raise All this Money to Support Local Non-Profits?
Our process could not be simpler. We meet four times a year for one hour each time. Each woman (or team of two women) donates $1,000 pesos (about $50 usd) or $2,000 pesos (about $100 usd) each meeting. The names of about twenty NGOs that have been nominated by members are placed in a hat. At each meeting, we draw three names. We hear a short presentation on each of the three organizations, and then we vote. The winning organization receives all of the pesos that were collected at that meeting.
How To Join
We encourage you to join this heartwarming group of women and men. All you have to do is show up at a meeting, sign a pledge agreement, and then attend every meeting if you are in town or leave your pledged donation at our drop off location, if you cannot attend the meeting.
Not in San Miguel Full Time?
If you are not in San Miguel full time, we still welcome you to join! We encourage snowbirds and part-timers to donate a full year’s contribution all at once. We happily divide your contribution into the four upcoming meetings and present $1,000 or $2,000 pesos each meeting for you, with your name on it so you will receive appropriate credit.
Drop Off Location
We encourage you to attend the meetings so you can vote and feel the excitement! But if you can’t be there, please drop off your donation at La Conexion, located at Ancha de San Antonio #39, by noon on the day of the meeting, or arrange for someone to do this for you. Write “100 Women Who Care” plus your name and the names of all team members, if any, on the outside of the envelop.
If you are a visitor, you are welcome to attend and make a one-time donation.
Meeting Schedule
We are grateful to La Casona Hotel for their admirable community spirit in donating the space for our meeting. You are invited to arrive at 3:30 PM for no-host cocktails and a chance to mix. Joining (for new members) and signing in with your donation begins at 4:30. The meeting will begin promptly at 5 PM and will end by 6 PM. Even if you are not sure you want to join, you are invited to the meeting to see us in action.
