Join Chaffee County Women Who Care

• You’re BUSY and hesitant to sign up for any more volunteer opportunities – what if you can’t make the time commitment?
• You want to make an immediate, direct and positive impact in your community.
• You want 100% of your donations to go directly to a local nonprofit in your community.
• You like the idea of being a part of a group of women that are like-minded in their desire to make a difference and have impact.

READY TO JOIN? 

1. Email us at ccwomenwhocare@gmail.com or come to a meeting. Guests are always welcome at the meetings. 

2. Please complete and submit the Membership Form at a meeting or via email to join. (Typed information is preferred)

3. Sign-Up with Grapevine for automatic donations. Prefer checks?  No problem. You are a voting member if you commit to a donation. 

• Commitment involves attending (if possible) four, one-hour meetings each year, and pledging to give $100 per meeting ($400 a year). Meetings will alternate between Buena Vista and Salida.
• At each meeting, an opportunity is provided for three members of the group to present a five-minute explanation of a local organization or agency in need of funding. After each presentation, members ask questions of the presenter.
• A secret-ballot vote is taken.
• When the winner is announced, each member, whether in attendance or not, donates $100 to the chosen agency. Gifts can be made through Grapevine via credit card or bank account. For other payment options, please contact us. 
• The meeting closes and the awardee benefits by a substantial gift -$100 x the number of members.

• Become a member and donate $100 each quarter to the nonprofit with the majority vote.
• Attend our quarterly meetings when possible, honoring your commitment and donating regardless of your attendance.
• That’s the power of collective giving!

Our team will put together fun quarterly events that help you learn about the needs in our community. 

We keep the meetings held within ONE HOUR.
