100 Men Who Care Hamilton

Meetings

Four evenings a year. This is what they look like.

A short record of each quarterly meeting: who made their case, how the room voted, and where the money went. Newest first.

Wednesday, September 9, 2026 · Caretaker's Club

Three pitches, one ballot, and a report-back.

A full room at the Caretaker's Club. Three Hamilton charities made their five-minute case, members voted by ballot, and the May Members Choice returned to report on how the gift was put to work. The ballot went to Gore Park Community Outreach.

The Big Give: two chapters, one room.

The November meeting was The Big Give, a joint evening with 100 Women Who Care Hamilton-Wentworth at Carmen's. Both groups heard the presentations and voted, and the Members Choice went to Carole Anne's Place at YWCA Hamilton.
