How will the non-profit be chosen?

Members who wish to submit a non-profit for consideration must submit a Nomination Form. The form must be completed in its entirety or it will not be selected as one of the final three nominations.
The form must be submitted at least 1 week prior to the event date.
Only members with a signed Membership Form and who are in current good standing on their contributions may submit a non-profit for consideration.
Three non-profits will be randomly drawn at the beginning of the meeting for presentation.
The sponsoring member, or member of the team, who submitted the selected non-profit should be ready to make a 5-minute presentation at the meeting.
NOTE: A representative is welcome to attend and speak on behalf of the non-profit as long as they are accompanied at the podium by the nominating member.
There will be a 5-minute question and answer period following each presentation.

How will members vote?

Following the presentations of the three drawn non-profits, each eligible member or team will vote by ballot. The non-profit receiving the most votes receive the donation.
In the case of a 2-way tie, members will be provided with the names of the two non-profits and a second vote will be taken. If the second vote results in another tie, a non-profit will be randomly picked by putting both names in a hat and drawing a single non-profit for that month.
In the case of a 3-way tie, a non-profit will be randomly drawn by putting all three names in a hat and drawing a single non-profit.
If a member’s non-profit is chosen, that non-profit is not eligible to be considered for selection for a period of two years; however, the member can immediately submit the name of another non-profit at the next quarterly event.
Checks are written directly to the non-profit, not to The Power of 100. Your canceled check is your receipt for tax purposes.
