IT’S SIMPLE

Four times a year, we meet for one hour and donate $100 each to a deserving Minnesota non-profit.

IT’S MEANINGFUL

Since September 2012, we have given more than $1,000,000 to 50 worthy organizations in Minnesota.

IT’S POWERFUL

It’s life-changing. Your $100 donation is multiplied by more than 100 other women. That’s a huge impact!

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens could change the world.Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.~ Margaret Mead
