It’s About Our Community

Every three months, we will come together to create an impact within the community, and we do this through the selection of a local charity. Along with our donation, we also promote awareness for these charities.

Eligibility Criteria

Only members of 100 Men Who Care Fredericton are eligible to nominate a charity/organization. There is no proxy voting.

In order to be considered to present at a meeting, the charity must be:

  • Based in, and serving the Greater Fredericton Area.
  • A registered charitable organization able to provide charitable tax receipts for donations. Please check the CRA website to verify.
  • Previously established for at least one year (no start-ups).

In addition:

  • No national or international charities will be considered, as the aim is to keep our donations right here in the Greater Fredericton Area. Organizations with a national link may be nominated, however, provided the request is for a project to be delivered in Greater Fredericton Area. The funds must stay in the area.
  • Any charity or not-for-profit group must be a registered group, and willing to provide tax receipts to all members who donate.
  • The nominated charities must agree in advance of the meeting to send tax receipts directly to each of the donating members.
  • Members of 100 Men Who Care Fredericton will vote by secret ballot to select one of the three nominated charities to receive all the donations that evening.
  • The organization with the greatest number of votes will be the recipient of the total funds donated and will be ineligible to be nominated/receive funds from 100 Men Who Fredericton for two (2) years.
  • The two charities not selected will be eligible to be nominated/present again after the next quarterly meeting (6 months).
  • Any organization chosen to present at a meeting will be contacted the week prior in order to prepare. We ask that you send 2-3 representatives of the organization, with one person as the main speaker. The following aspects are suggested for your presentation: who are you, what organization do you represent, what made you join this organization, if awarded this donation what impact do you plan on making in our community?
  • A request will be made of the recipient charity to present an update on their use of the donation at the next meeting of 100 Men Who Care Fredericton.

Note: 100 Men Who Care Fredericton reserves the right to amend these eligibility criteria when appropriate, without consultation with the nominated charities.
