The 100 Women Who Care about Long Island group will hold their next meeting on April 8th at the Jewel Restaurant in Melville to hear presentations from two charities that previously received donations. At the meeting, members will select the next charity to receive a donation. The philanthropic group was formed to allow local women to collectively donate and make a larger impact on Long Island charities than they could individually. Members have contributed over $15,000 to help three charities in their first three meetings.

Our Next Meeting Is April 8
Join us, meet our members and hear why 100 Women Who Care about Long Island is making such an impact
on Long Island! We are 75 members strong after only 3 one-hour meetings!
Our members have voted on and contributed over $15,000 to 3 deserving Nassau and Suffolk County charities:
 Theresa Academy of Performing Arts
 Hospice Care Network
 Pal-O-Mine Equestrian
On April 8 hear from Christin Paglen JD, Vice President of Development for the Hospice Care Network and
Lisa Gatti, Founder and Director of Pal-O-Mine Equestrian on how they will be using their donation to serve
fellow Long Islanders.
After their presentations, listen and watch how we select the next charity recipient and learn a little more about
each of our members.
Most non-members that attend our meetings are so excited about being part of the group, and making a
difference in the community, that they join and contribute at the meeting.
100 Women Who Care about Long Island is a philanthropic group formed for local women who are
interested in supporting our communities by contributing to Long Island charities together as a group to increase
the donation impact.
As individuals it is difficult to make a very large impact, but as a group we have the ability to contribute to the
growth of our communities in ways that we never before thought possible. The size of our quarterly donations
is limited only by the members we have!
Our April 8 meeting is from 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm at Jewel Restaurant in Melville (RUBIE CORPORATE
PLAZA on Route 110 just south of the LIE). After the meeting we invite you to join us for some socializing
and networking. There will be complimentary hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar available.
