SUMMARY:NOCO 100
DESCRIPTION:Joining the group\n\nTo join the group\, you must click the button above and complete the Membership and Commitment form. By joining\, each member commits to donating $100 per meeting\, four times per year (four consecutive meetings from the date of joining the organization). Meetings are diligently conducted in one hour or less.\n\nEach meeting's nominated charities are selected from the list of charities submitted by members upon joining. Nominated charities must meet certain eligibility requirements. Charitable organizations under consideration must serve the Northern Colorado area and provide individual tax receipts DIRECTLY to contributing members. The recipient charity must agree not to give out member information to any third parties\, except for the Internal Revenue Service for tax purposes.\n\nFYI: Tax receipts are provided DIRECTLY to the members by the recipient charity. Please DO NOT contact NOCO100.org for your tax receipt\, as it is not ours to give.\n\nAt the meeting\n\nBefore each meeting\, 3 charities are selected via a random selection from the list of member nominated charities. The chosen organizations are then invited to give a quick presentation at our next meeting telling us about their organization and why they are seeking funding by our members for that quarter.\n\nAfter the presentations\, a vote is held\, and the charity with the most votes by simple majority will be the recipient. Ties will be decided by further votes. If a tie persists\, the membership will vote to select one of the tied organizations. If a second tie occurs\, the membership committee will break the tie by coin toss.\n\nAll members must then write out their check directly to the charity with the most votes   no exceptions. All checks are collected and immediately given to the chosen charity. Members who did not vote for the selected charity agree to make their donation regardless. If the member so desires\, they may elect to write another check out for any amount to the non selected charities. But in any case\, the members agree to support the winning charity with at least a $100.00 donation.\n\nFYI: Donations are made directly to the recipient charity and additional donations do not count toward your commitment. Only checks in accord with our terms and conditions count.\n\nFollow-up presentation\n\nThen\, the recipient charity is invited back to the next meeting to explain to all members the impact their donations have made. The recipient charity is eligible to present again in 3 years. The other 2 non-recipient charities may present again after 1 year. When it is possible to bring on sponsorship\, a small donation will also be provided to the other two charities.\n\nThere is no proxy voting permitted\, but members who cannot attend must ensure that their blank check (enclosed in a sealed envelope) reaches their "buddy" or the meeting organizers before the meeting starts. Members who do not provide a check are no longer in good standing and cannot vote at future meetings.\n\n"You're going to make a difference. A lot of times it won't be huge\, it won't be visible even. But it will matter just the same."\n\n  Commissioner James Gordon\, the Dark Knight Rises
