100 People Who Care

We're celebrating local nonprofits doing good for the community. At the end of the night, we'll send one home with $10,000.

We're looking for at least 100 people to attend this giving event. Every attendee:

  • Hears pitches from randomly selected nonprofits
  • Votes on the pitch with the biggest impact
  • Donates $100 to the final winner (cash or check)

We're also looking for nonprofit participants.

  • Attend ready to pitch your mission
  • Four randomly selected nonprofits present

*total donation depends on attendance.

How It Works:

At this event, $100 = one vote. Here is how to best approach 100 People Who Care as a participating non-profit.

How it works:

  • We invite local non-profits who serve the Lee’s Summit community to register and attend 100 People Who Care.
  • We invite community members to attend ready to donate $100 (cash or check) to a non-profit.
  • At the event, each non-profit in attendance is placed into a drawing.
  • We select four non-profits at random to give presentations or pitches to our audience of donors about the great work their non-profit is doing.
  • Presenters may engage the audience however they’d like to demonstrate their local impact as long as they follow two rules:
    • No technology (no slides, video etc.)
    • No longer than 10 minutes.
  • An audience vote determines which organization among the four presenters goes home with up to $10K*

Invite your supporters

  • Bring out folks who believe in you! Every $100 commitment = one vote. The more donating supporters non-profits bring, the better odds they have to win if selected to present. All participating nonprofits are welcome to donate and earn the ability to vote for themselves or another non-profit.
