100WWCEastTNFoothills

Welcome to 100 Women Who Care East TN Foothills! We are a giving circle of like-minded women serving Loudon and Monroe counties that donates $10,000+ to a local nonprofit each quarter. How does it work?

• Each member commits to donating $100 each quarter
• Our chapter meets for an hour each quarter to listen to 3 presentations from member-nominated nonprofits
• Members vote on the nonprofits
• The winning nonprofit is awarded $10,000+

Pooling donations makes a significant impact for these local organizations and the work they do.

 Quarterly Meetings

All meetings take place at the Tellico Village Yacht Club located at 100 Sequoyah Road, Loudon from 4:30 - 5:30 pm. We gather to socialize at 4:00 pm, so plan to come early and perhaps stay for dinner at the Blue Heron following the meeting! Guests are welcome at all meetings. Upcoming meeting dates are:

• Thursday - November 9, 2023
• Thursday – February 15, 2024
• Thursday – May 16, 2024

Nonprofits

Any member in good standing (defined as a member who actively participates by donating) may nominate a nonprofit. Each nonprofit submitted is vetted to ensure it meets the chapter’s criteria before being added to the pool. Before each meeting 3 nonprofits are randomly selected from the pool and invited to present at our quarterly meeting. At each quarterly meeting, the 3 randomly selected nonprofits make presentations, and the members then vote to select the winning nonprofit.
