Joining our giving circle is for you if:

  • Your time is limited but you want to contribute to the community on a bigger scale than you could on your own.
  • You are willing to commit to a 1 hour meeting and $100 donation every three months. 
  • You want to learn about – or let other women know about – the amazing work being done by local non-profits in the Las Vegas area.
  • You want to be part of a caring and amazing group of women that are making an immediate and positive impact in our community.
  • You want your donation to go directly to a local charity.​

How it works:

  • Meetings are held 4 times a year - February, May, August, and November.  Each member makes a $100 donation online via Growfund prior to each meeting.
  • Members can nominate a local charity to receive the combined donation.  There are eligibility requirements and nominations must be approved at least 2 weeks prior to the next meeting.  Three approved charities will be randomly selected no later than 1 week prior to the meeting, and the nominating member will be notified via email.  
  • At the meetings, the nominating members will make an informal presentation, up to 5 minutes, to the group about their charity’s mission and why it is deserving of the members’ vote.  Each presentation will be followed by a brief Q & A period. (Nominating members must be in attendance and available to present the charity to the group.  If a member is not able to attend another charity will be drawn.)
  • Following the three presentations, an anonymous vote will be taken and the charity with the most votes will receive the combined donation of all members.
  • Donations are sent to the charity by Growfund (within 2 weeks of the meeting). 

Rules

  • Two-way ties will be decided by one more round of votes. If a tie persists, the two names that are tied will be drawn at random.
  • Each member contributes $100 regardless of which charity wins the vote.  Members who are not in attendance must make their contribution before the meeting.  There is no proxy voting.
  • Charitable contribution receipts are provided by Growfund via email when a donation is made. ​

Next meeting: Wednesday, August 12th @ 7 pm
