Mission
We provide a means by which women in our county can combine their giving to allow for more sizable impact gifts to non-profit organizations, inclusive of faith-based organizations and governmental agencies, working to meet needs and enhance the quality of life for all in Chaffee County.

How It Works:
Commitment involves attending (if possible) four, one-hour meetings each year, and pledging to give $100 per meeting ($400 a year). Meetings will alternate between Buena Vista and Salida.
At each meeting, an opportunity is provided for three members of the group to present a five-minute explanation of a local organization or agency in need of funding. After each presentation, members ask questions of the presenter.
A secret-ballot vote is taken.
When the winner is announced, each member (whether in attendance or not) donates $100 to the chosen agency. Gifts can be made through Grapevine via credit card or bank account. For other payment options, please contact us.
The meeting closes and the awardee benefits by a substantial gift ($100 x the number of members).
