Impact100 DC, a local chapter of a global organization, is an all-volunteer women’s philanthropic community that provides transformational grants to local nonprofits. When these women come together, they are able to make more of an impact through collective funds. Grants are awarded through an application process, and 100% of all donations go to the selected nonprofits.
Recent grantees include many youth-focused nonprofits, including BEST Kids (mentoring foster and at-risk youth), First Generation College Bound (inspiring first generation and low income youth to obtain a college degree), Playtime Project (providing play experiences for homeless children), and The MusicianShip (empowering youth musicians from marginalized communities).
Impact100 DC is hoping to grow membership, as well as gain new volunteers that can review and assess grants or share professional experience in a variety of operational areas. To learn more or to get involved, visit impact100dc.org.
