Danielle Cohen is a charter member of the 100 Women Charitable Foundation which was founded in 2006 by a small group of friends. Their objective was to get 100 women to donate $100 that would be given out as grants to local nonprofits supporting under-served populations in the areas of education, family, and health & wellness.

As a busy working mother of three, Danielle found the concept of writing a single check, yet having the impact of a much larger grant in her local community, very appealing. Each year 100 Women Charitable Foundation raises money through membership donations and then gives 100% of it away to organizations working in our local communities. They now have over 300 members. Danielle will be joined by Pam Klaus*, 100 Women Board President, and they will share the history of the organization, what inspired the founders, and explain how it all works.
