NEXT MEETING SCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY, MAY 13, 2025 
IN-PERSON AND ON ZOOM

WHAT CAN HAPPEN WITH THE POWER OF COLLECTIVE GIVING?

When you donate $100 to a charity, you wonder if you're making a difference.  But when 100 people donate $100 at the same time, they raise $10,000 for  a worthy cause.  That's impact.  And it only takes an hour.

No volunteering, no telemarketing, no event planning, no silent auction donations to solicit.  Simply a great way to give back right in our own community.  Come join with us.

THIS IS PERFECT FOR YOU IF:

  • You want to help those in need, but  cannot personally commit a lot of time or resources;
  • You want to increase the dollar impact of your own generous contribution by pooling it with others;
  • You want 100% of your donation to go directly to local charities.
And all you need to do is give $100 and one hour of your time four times a year.

MEMBERS CAN VIEW AND VOTE FROM ANYWHERE!

Members can always view the three charity presentations and vote for their favorites.  Our in-person meetings are live-streamed on our FB page, and votes can be texted to us in real time.  Our virtual Zoom meetings offer members a chance to view and vote, no matter where they are.  Look for specific details in the email a week before the meeting.

Lake County Haven
February 2025 Donation

Continuing with the format of twice yearly hybrid meetings (in-person and Zoom) and twice-yearly Zoom Only meetings, the February meeting was Zoom only.  We heard about three terrific charities, and members voted both in real time on Zoom.

​Taking home the big award of $16,375 was Lake County Have, presented by Diane Phillis, which empowers homeless women and their children to achieve permanent, independent living. The $500 awards went to Families Helping Families Chicagoland, presented by Amy Newman, and to Reach Rescue, presented by Renee Schneider.
