100 Women Strong Mendocino Coast

Thu, Apr 16· 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM PDT

Eagles Hall, Fort Bragg

After a history of impactful giving around the globe, the 100 Women Strong movement is bringing its seventh event to the Mendocino Coast on Thursday, April 16, 2026, at Eagles Hall in Fort Bragg. Beginning with wine and snacks at 5:30 p.m., followed by the program at 6:00 p.m., this community-driven event invites participants to pool their $100 donations to collectively fund a local nonprofit. In partnership with the Community Foundation of Mendocino County, the initiative has already helped raise and distribute nearly $120,000 since its local launch in 2023. During the event, three nonprofits—the Mendocino Coast Hospitality Center, Mendocino Film Festival, and Pacific Textile Arts—will each present their work, after which attendees will vote to determine which organization receives up to $10,000 in funding. Open to all, the event is a powerful and joyful way to come together, support local organizations, and experience the impact of collective giving firsthand.

This is a free event; however, we encourage a $100 donation. Please note that only those who have contributed and are in attendance will be eligible to vote.
