The 100 Men Campaign was created in 2016 to engage men in the pursuit of Aurora’s mission. Led by the 100 Men Host Committee, the campaign invites men to donate at least $100 each and to encourage gifts from other men and businesses in the their personal and professional communities.

Last year, Hartford’s charismatic Mayor, Arunan Arulampalam, was the keynote speaker at the 100 Men Campaign breakfast that closed out the successful campaign that raised nearly $30,000. Thanks to the efforts of Chair William Pennoyer and the dedicated Host Committee, nearly 100 attendees gathered to network at the Mandell JCC. We are so grateful for their dedication to building a brighter future for women and girls! 

For 2026, we’ll be celebrating the fundraising efforts of the 100 Men Campaign with a Happy Hour at World of Beer in West Hartford’s Blue Back Square. Donors of $150+ will receive an exclusive invitation to join us on Wednesday, April 29th at 5:30pm.

We hope you can join us!
