President's Message
Happy New Year!
We may only be a few weeks into 2024, but our 2024 membership drive is well underway. A BIG THANK YOU for those who have already completed their membership form and started or completed their payment. If you haven't already renewed online, make time to do that today. (Reducing procrastination is one of MY New Year's resolutions!) And start thinking about who you are going to invite to participate this year. It might sound cliché, but if each member brings a friend, we will double our numbers and exponentially change the face of philanthropy in Anne Arundel County.
We need your network! You can help us meet our goal of adding new members and re-engaging past members. We need you to help us spread the word, so it is important that you share why you are a member of Impact100 with friends, family, neighbors and co-workers. The size of our grant is directly related to the number of our memberships, and each member can help recruit new members so we can make an even bigger difference. We know that our members love learning about new nonprofits and voting for their project, and every vote counts.
As our community continues to face complex challenges that have only deepened through the pandemic, women's philanthropy is more important than ever for 2024!
Throughout the past few years our local nonprofits were on the front lines helping individuals get through the pandemic in a variety of ways. Our work with these nonprofits makes a huge immediate impact on the way they do business, on the services they can offer, and the people they can serve. We are proud to have granted $434,000 over the last six years to Anne Arundel County nonprofits, and we can't wait to get together to make an even greater impact in 2024.
We have a lot in the coming months to get excited for including our New Member Social. Make sure you are following us on social media to get the latest info on all of the upcoming events!
