YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

What is Grapevine?
Grapevine is a platform that provides our group with an online home that allows
us to donate to a shared pool then collaborate to decide which nonprofits to
give the money to. They also provide our group with free virtual event planning
and hosting support, donation matching funds, and more!
Why did we start this group?
At Grapevine our mission is to help grow the giving circle movement. In order to
do that, we’re working to help launch giving circles in new areas and categories
where they don’t exist already. That’s why we’re starting Women Empowering
Sacramento. As we develop this group, we’ll identify leaders within the group
and help them maintain and grow the group over time.

What is the process for selecting and donating to nonprofits?
1. Contribution
Members make their quarterly contribution.

2. Nomination
If a member has made a contribution, they can then nominate a nonprofit for
consideration by adding their nomination on the post on the Grapevine page. The
nomination should align with the focus outlined by your group.

3. Selection
After all the nominations are submitted, we’ll randomly select three members'
nominations.

4. Meeting
Each quarter we’ll hold a virtual or in-person networking event for one hour. At
the quarterly event, the three members’ nominations that were selected will be
presented. They will have five minutes to present their nonprofit and then five
minutes for Q&A from members. We’ll have time for networking and connection at
the beginning and end of the event.

5. Voting
After all the presentations are complete, every member who has made their
contribution will be eligible to vote. The nonprofit with the most votes will be
rewarded with the funds.
What is the time commitment for joining the group?
The time commitment is as little or as much as you’d like. In general though,
most members will spend about 5 hours per year participating in the group. This
includes nominating and/or just voting on selected nonprofits once per quarter,
as well as attending one-hour events each quarter (four per year), some
networking events, and other opportunities to connect with other group members.
However, there is no requirement to participate in the events. Additionally,
we’d love to work with members interested in getting more involved to help lead
and grow the group, which would require a few additional hours per quarter or
year, depending upon your capacity.
Is there a membership fee?
We don’t charge any membership fees, but our payment processor charges a
nonprofit discounted credit card fee of 2.2% + 30¢ per donation (3.5% for AmEx).
If you’d like, you can leave an optional tip on your donation that supports
Grapevine’s work.
Who is eligible to Join today!?
Anyone who identifies as professional woman in Sacramento is eligible to join.
This can be for any business type, industry, position, or level. All are
welcome!
What happens after I join?
We’ll reach out to you about the status of your membership within one week. If
your membership is approved, we’ll send you the information for joining the
group and adding your donation.
