Monday, January 16 will be the Tenth Anniversary meeting of San Miguel’s community of caring, called 100 Women Who Care!

Over the past ten years, by joining together in this hugely successful “crowd funding” effort, we have raised $2,809,006 pesos (almost $150,000 usd) for San Miguel non-profit organizations. This gives us a lot to celebrate.

Here is how we work and how you can join.

Does our work require a large Board of Directors, an expensive staff, costly administrative expenses? None of that! Raising this money could not be simpler. Here is how it works: We meet four times a year for one hour each time. Every member has pledged to bring $1,000 pesos or $2,000 pesos (member’s choice). At each meeting, several non-profit organizations are nominated. Three are drawn out of a hat. We hear a short presentation by each of the three, and then we vote. All the funds we have collected that evening go to the one hard-working non-profit that the group selected that evening.

To join this heartwarming group of men and women, 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. If you cannot attend a meeting, you must leave your donation before the meeting at the La Conexion location on Ancha San Antonio, addressed to 100 Women Who Care.

We plan several Tenth Anniversary surprises for the meeting.

For your part in the celebration, we invite you to consider two ideas:
1. Consider adding 10% to your donation for the 10th anniversary. Just tuck an extra $100 peso note in with your $1,000 pesos. Or an extra $200 pesos note if you are a Sin Limite donor who gives $2,000 pesos each meeting.

2. Make a special effort to bring a friend to the meeting who has never been to a meeting before, or who has never joined. Remember, this can be a man or woman. We heartily welcome men. Let’s increase our numbers in 2023. It means so very much to the NGOs we support.

Come help celebrate Ten years of Giving.
