100 Goodfellas Membership Bylaws

Each member commits to donating $100 per event, up to 4 times per year. Our group does NOT collect any money.

100+ Men who have a desire to support their community & want an opportunity to raise money that stays 100% local and gives to their communitiy; St Joseph County, Michigan (Sturgis, Centerville, Colon, Mendon, Burr Oak, White Pigeon, Three Rivers, Nottawa) Each member will write a check directly to the non-profit that our group collectively selects. Everyone’s donation goes directly to the non-prof

it chosen. To be considered for a donation, a charity must have an IRS 501(c)3 designation and serve the designated area stated in our organization bylaws. The charity must be at least one year old. No national charities will be considered; however, local branches of national charities are eligible for consideration. The purpose is for 100% of your contribution to stay in the local community. Eligible charities must fall within the area bounded by these cities/villages:
St Joseph County, Michigan (Sturgis, White Pigeon, Three Rivers, Centerville, Mendon, Colon, Burr Oak, Nottawa)
Any member may nominate a charity for consideration, but this must be done 1 month (30 days) prior to the meeting, either online or by emailing the downloadable form in order to confirm charity eligibility. Three weeks from the date of the event, a voting form will be sent to all members with the list of eligible charities. Members will be asked to rank their top 3 choices. The charities that receive the top 3 totals in points will be contacted and asked to send a representative to the member event. Charity representatives will be asked to give a 5 minute (no technology) overview of the mission of the charity and how they would use the funds. Members will vote for the one charity that they would like to see receive the funds. Votes will be tabulated at the meeting and the winner announced that night. Members must be present to vote. Members who did not vote for the selected organization agree to make their donation regardless. Members can, of course, feel free to donate their money or time privately to the other two charities if they wish. If you are unable to attend please give your $100 check to a member to deliver on your behalf. Members will receive a tax receipt directly from the charity. A charity not selected at one meeting is eligible to present again at a subsequent meeting. A recipient charity is not eligible for future consideration for the next two years. The winning charity must agree to NOT use our Members’ names for future solicitations or otherwise use their personal information. If the charity/non-profit/worthy cause does not adhere to these conditions, they will be removed from any future consideration. Our events (held at a central location) are 45 minutes social and 30-40 minutes business. From 5:30 to 6:15 pm members register and socialize while enjoying refreshments. At 6:15, the business session to determine the charity begins.

TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT!!! Our 13th Edition of 100 Goodfellas - and an ALL NEW FORMAT!!! Come check us out! Everyone in attendance is eligible for a Door Prize (Round of Golf, with Cart, for FOURSOME at Island Hills Golf Course)!!!

5:30p-7p at The Sturges Young Center for the Arts - Sponsored by Radiant Life Church!

OUR NEXT 100 GOODFELLAS event is ONE WEEK FROM TODAY - Tuesday August 13th, Hosted by Radiant Life Church, from 5:30-7p at The Sturges-Young Center for the Arts.

NEW FORMAT!!! We are rolling out a new look - EVERYONE in attendance can nominate a charity. We will select three charities and then the Goodfellas Board will "interview" the person who nominated the charity to find out basic information about that charity. We will then invite the winning charity to our next meeting to talk about how they used the donations!

This allows us to get everyone more involved and has the potential to reach further out in our community to increase the different charities receiving funds. We also don't have to send people away with nothing after having made a presentation - which we never liked to do.

Please invite a new member or bring one back that hasn't been there in a while!!! Together, we make a difference!
