Key Topics:
- “100 Women of McKinney” started in 2017, aiming to gather 100 women to each donate $100, creating a $10,000 impact for local nonprofits.
- Originally called “100 Women of El Dorado,” it expanded to include more women and nonprofits, rebranding to “100 Women of McKinney.”
- They host an annual “Girls Night Out with a Purpose,” where three local nonprofits present their work, and attendees vote on which organization will receive the funds.
- Presenting at the event offers nonprofits not only funds but also exposure to potential volunteers and supporters.
- Participation is open to all women; the $100 contribution goes directly to the selected nonprofit.
- The next event is on October 3 at the McKinney Cotton Mill, with an “Ooh La La Paris” theme.
- The organization focuses on simplicity, connecting women with the community to support impactful local charities.
