HOW IT WORKS

"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." - Helen Keller

How it Works

The Power of 100 is an idea borrowed from similar organizations that have sprung up across the nation. Each quarter, members nominate charitable organizations that work in the Oklahoma City area. Members come together for a brief one hour meeting where three charities are randomly selected. The nominating member makes a brief presentation about the organization and why they deserve to be selected, all members in attendance vote, and each member donates $100 to the selected charity. Each event has the potential to generate $10,000 for a local charity!
