The membership-based 100 Women Who Give a Hoot demonstrates the power of community and collective giving by raising close to $10,000 four times a year in support of a local nonprofit. Attendees of this quarter’s “party with a purpose” are invited to gather at Hope Valley Country Club, where they pledge to donate $100 prior to hearing presentations from three charities. Guests then cast their votes to determine which organization will earn the sum of the donations, all within a one-hour timeframe.
