At each quarterly meeting:

After the three presentations, members vote to select the nonprofit that will receive the collective grant.
The organization receiving the majority of votes is awarded all member donations of $100 each—currently totaling more than $30,000 each quarter.
Through the Community Partner Impact Fund (CPIF), the two organizations not selected also receive smaller sustaining grants, ensuring every presenting nonprofit benefits.
