Opportunity House is a day shelter in Concord that provides two meals a day, showers, laundry, clothing, and computers. It has a housing program with the long-term purpose of getting people off the streets and into housing. It provides guests with GED assistance, help getting ID’s and counseling for substance abuse and mental health issues. We look forward to hearing about the impact of our donation at the January meeting. |

July ’21 Award
Our Concord group met on July 15th, voted and awarded our giving circle funding of over $4,600 to the Tour De Saints Charity Bicycle Ride where all proceeds will go to the Cooperative Christian Ministry in Concord. We became the primary sponsor to kick-off the charity event on August 28th which is intended to deliver more than $10,000 to CCM.
| Our $4600 donation resulted in an overall donation of $14,000 and was matched by a local business, doubling the overall impact. |
How are donations collected?
100 Men Who Care does not process your gift. We partner with a larger organization to reduce cost and delivery of the donation. The funds are managed by a national organization which is recognized as a nonprofit, 501C3 DAF, and distributes funds for a minor fee to cover any credit card or ACH cost.
How are funds distributed?
The funds are managed by a national organization which is recognized as a nonprofit and distributes funds for a minor fee to cover any credit card or ACH cost. After the meeting, we will notify the Donor Advised Fund of the award. They will confirm the nonprofit organization and send the funds directly to them.
Is my donation deductible?
Yes. Your $100 contribution will be made to a 501(c)3 charity, NOT to “100 Men Who Care”. Tax receipts will be issued to you directly by the charity.
