100 Men of Scugog
Celebrating Growth and Community Impact: 100 Men of Scugog
Last night’s meeting of the 100 Men of Scugog was a significant milestone in the group’s journey towards revitalization and community impact. After experiencing a decline in membership during the COVID-19 pandemic, the group is now seeing a resurgence, marked by the presence of eight new members at the meeting! This growth is a testament to the community’s commitment to supporting local charities and making a difference. The meeting featured presentations from three deserving local charities, each dedicated to addressing vital community needs:
Port Perry Walk for Dog Guides: This charity supports the Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides, which empowers individuals with disabilities by providing specially trained dog guides.
Bereaved Families of Ontario Durham Region: This organization offers peer-based bereavement support, helping individuals navigate their grief journey with compassion and understanding.
Feed the Need in Durham: As the region’s emergency food hub, this charity works tirelessly to alleviate hunger by distributing food to those in need through its network of over 65 member agencies
After thoughtful consideration and voting, the group selected Bereaved Families of Ontario Durham Region as the recipient of their collective donation of $3500.
With just an individual donation of $100 and an hour of your time this group can make a substantial collective impact on the chosen charity’s ability to continue its vital work. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all presenting charities for their dedication and efforts.
While Bereaved Families of Ontario Durham Region received this meeting’s donation, we encourage everyone to explore and support all these organizations. Each plays a crucial role in enhancing our community’s well-being.
BRING A BUDDY! As we celebrate this positive step forward, we ask you to invite more kind hearted guys to join us at 100 Men of Scugog this coming January to celebrate our 10 year Anniversary!
Thank you for your continued support and commitment to local causes.
Let’s keep building momentum and making a difference!

How it works in a nutshell
We gather for just one hour on the 3rd Tuesday of January, April, July and October. At each meeting, we listen to 3 local charities who present for 5 minutes and answer questions for 2. The guys secretly choose one and write a $100 cheque (per person) to the selected organization. No committees, no bank account, no fees.
If you:
- are committed to helping others in our community, are stretched for time, but you can spare 4 hours per year
- want to be part of a powerful group of local men making an immediate, direct and positive effect on the lives of our neighbours. Where else can you get your $100 matched by 99 other big hearted friends?
- want 100% of your donations to go directly to local charity
- want to learn more about the many worthy community service programs and organizations servicing Scugog
Join us and become “One” of the 100 Men of Scugog!
