Impact 100 PBC connects, engages, and inspires women to improve our community by collectively funding multiple $100,000 grants to nonprofits that implement high impact initiatives in southern Palm Beach County.
This is a simple mission for women who care deeply, give generously, and believe strongly that they can create significant and lasting change by funding transformational grants to local nonprofit organizations. Impact 100 PBC unites women to give together to change and improve communities.
In fact, for the first time in our 13-year history, Impact gave away NINE $100,000 grants to deserving nonprofit programs in our community. This, in the end, is our greatest accomplishment. It is the lasting impact of this year’s grants that will (1) promote equality in the arts through a music program for children in underserved neighborhoods where art and music are usually inaccessible and unaffordable, (2) teach autistic children to swim, (3) help end veteran suicide by rescuing and training psychiatric service dogs, (4) provide healthy and fresh produce to low-income working families, seniors on fixed income, and refugees, (5) help teens to flourish and find direction through a teen leadership initiative, (6) prevent the trauma of homelessness through rental assistance and academic support, (7) address food insecurity through a school pantry and food delivery program, (8) care for the social, emotional, and mental health needs of our elementary aged children, and (9) foster health and well-being for high-need children through specific wellness programming.
Diverse women unite to fund these grants, and while doing so, form deep bonds of friendship and pursue a higher purpose. The amazing women of Impact 100 PBC have given nearly $7,000,000 in grant funding to local nonprofit organizations since 2012. Our aspirational goal is to give away $1,000,000 a year to change lives and further improve our community. We treasure our women members who join us on this unstoppable mission!
