100 MEN WHO CARE NEWS RELEASE

100 Men Who Care – Los Alamos, a group of men dedicated to providing immediate and meaningful financial support to local organizations, will be holding its second post-COVID quarterly event 5:30-7 p.m. Thursday, June 13, at the SALA Event Center.

Organized like a “Shark Tank” for nonprofits, the event is only 90 minutes long and in that time the group votes on one of three organizations to support based on short presentations by each. Each group member then writes a check for $100 directly to the winning organization. Through prior events, we collected more than $13,000 for local nonprofits.

The event is modeled after (i.e. shamelessly copying) the successful Los Alamos group for women that has also restarted. The two organizations coordinate event dates and nonprofits eligible to apply in order to “spread the wealth”.

For nonprofits who want to be considered, the application with email submittal information is linked.  There is no need for nonprofits to reapply if they applied to our first post-Covid event this past March; they will automatically be considered for the June event.

The 100 Men Who Care – Los Alamos group is open to all interested in participating. Each member commits to contributing $100 once a quarter. In addition, members may nominate their favorite local charity. Although an RSVP is not necessary, you can let us know you are attending by sending email to 100menwhocarelosalamos@gmail.com
