Members make their quarterly contribution.
2. Nomination
If a member has made a contribution, they can then nominate a nonprofit for consideration by adding their nomination on the post on the Grapevine page. The nomination should align with the focus outlined by your group.
3. Selection
After all the nominations are submitted, we’ll randomly select three members' nominations.
4. Meeting
Each quarter we’ll hold a virtual or in-person networking event for one hour. At the quarterly event, the three members’ nominations that were selected will be presented. They will have five minutes to present their nonprofit and then five minutes for Q&A from members. We’ll have time for networking and connection at the beginning and end of the event.
5. Voting
After all the presentations are complete, every member who has made their contribution will be eligible to vote. The nonprofit with the most votes will be rewarded with the funds.
