100+WomenWhoCarePR
Gives Back
Bringing Hope to Puerto Rico
100+WomenWhoCarePR seeks to make a positive impact within the Puerto Rican Community by establishing a forum in which modest donations by members combine to form a significant pooling of funds.
Please join us in this effort.
We gather at quarterly meetings to hear three short presentations from nonprofits that have been nominated by individual members . Afterwards, the membership votes and the nonprofit with the most votes is awarded a check for $50 from each of the members, for a collective, impactful donation. Therefore, the larger the membership, the bigger the pot and the greater the impact!

Who We Are and What We Do
Lending a Helping Hand
Inspired by the 2017 Maria and Irma Hurricane devastation on the island, 100+ Women Who Care Puerto Rico is modeled on affiliates in over 350 needy locations worldwide.
​
Four times a year a needy charity will have a chance to receive checks from hopefully 100 persons at the nomination meeting. Zooming during Covid-19. Membership / commitment and participation inquiry should be sent to mdtaracido@gmail.com (Lita)
​
Nonprofit nominations should be sent to Maykitpr@gmail.com (Kitty) There are no administration fees nor money handling; individual checks are filled out in the chosen nonprofit's name and will be handed over to the charity.
​
If you know of a worthy organization in Puerto Rico needing help, please send us contact information about their mission, population, and other funding sources, so they may compete for this quarterly giving event.

The 100Women check is handed to Las Mujeres Bartoleñas. They will apply our donation toward their support for women in this western mountain town suffering from domestic violence. Others also support the schools and food scarcity.
