Community

Members meet to create change. Four times a year, we gather for a couple of hours so two local charities can showcase the great work they are doing through short presentations. Each of us then contributes to the charity of his choice, with every cent donated going directly to the charities. Along the way, we network, socialize, and enjoy a refreshment and a bite to eat.  It doesn’t take much time, but it all adds up to make a big difference to charities and the communities they help support.

Our goal is to bring together men of all ages and backgrounds who want to give back to their community. We’re also about socializing, networking and having fun while being generous.
