HOW IT WORKS

step one:

Picture

step two:

Picture

step three:

Picture


Commit to donating $100 at each of four yearly meetings.





At the meeting, vote on the charity you would like to support.





Make out your $100 cheque to the charity chosen by the group.





Joining the group:

Picture
To join the group, you must complete the Commitment Form. By joining, each member commits to donating $100 per meeting, four times per year (four consecutive meetings from the date of joining the organization). Meetings are diligently conducted in one hour or less.

Each meeting’s nominated charities are selected from the list of charities submitted by members.
Nominated charities must meet certain eligibility requirements. Charitable organizations under consideration must serve the Quinte Region and provide individual tax receipts directly to contributing members. The recipient charity must agree not to give out member information to any third parties, except for Canadian Revenue Agency (CRA) or tax purposes.

NOTE: Tax receipts are provided directly to the members by the recipient charity. Please do not contact 100+ Men Who Care Quinte
          
 for your tax receipt, as it is not ours to give
.



At the meeting:

Picture
At each meeting, three charities are chosen from a ballot box. The members who nominated the chosen organizations are then asked to do a brief three minute presentation. Members will not know which three charities are presenting until the ballots are drawn.

After the presentations, a vote is held, and the charity with the most votes by simple majority will be the recipient. Ties will be decided by further votes. If a tie persists, the membership will vote to select one of the tied organizations. If a second tie occurs, the membership committee will break the tie by coin toss.

All members must then write out their cheque to the charity with the most votes — no exceptions. All cheques are collected and given to the chosen charity as soon after the meeting as possible. Members who did not vote for the selected charity agree to make their donation regardless.


NOTE: Donations made directly to the recipient charity and online donations do not count toward your commitment. Only cheques
            handed in to 100+ Men Who Care Quinte at our quarterly meetings count.


Follow-up presentation:

Picture
The member who nominated the recipient charity is asked at the next meeting to explain to all members the impact their donations have made. The recipient charity is not eligible to be nominated again for two years (7 meetings). The reason for this is to make sure a wide variety of charities are considered.

There is no proxy voting permitted, but members who cannot attend must ensure that their blank cheque (enclosed in a sealed envelope) reaches their “buddy” or the meeting organizers before the meeting starts. Members who do not provide a cheque are no longer in good standing and cannot vote at future meetings.

         NOTE:
   Members can nominate their charity of choice at any time, up to one week prior to a meeting. Just click on the
