Welcome to the Class of 2022! Whether you are a brand new or returning Impact member we are thrilled to have you as part of our 435 member strong women’s giving circle dedicated to making an impact throughout Monmouth County!
This is an exciting time as we enter our 7th year of awarding transformational grants to local non-profit organizations. Thanks to you, our members, we are proud to have collectively awarded over $2 million to date to fund a range of inspiring and impactful projects. From ensuring women in at-risk communities receive the postpartum services they need - to offering art therapy programs that address acute youth mental health issues - to creating a larger, more suitable space for patients who need free medical care - your charitable dollars are truly making a difference (Learn more about ALL of our 2021 grantees). We can’t wait to add $435,000 to our funding this year and see the impact it will have!
While our membership drive for this year has technically closed, remember that we welcome new members to join the Impact class of 2023 at any point during this year, with the added bonus that they get additional months of membership! Our members are our best advocates. So become an Impact Ambassador today and join the other 68 women who have been instrumental in bringing new members to Impact in recent months! We are so grateful for your help in spreading the word! Look out for additional tools to help you speak about Impact and its member benefits to your friends, family, and colleagues. After all, the more members we have, the more grants we can award!
We’re excited to now direct our energy to the true heartbeat of our grantmaking – our application and review process where our Focus Area Committees (FACs) evaluate the grant applications. If you would like to be a part of this critical process, join us at our FAC information session on May 4 at 7:30 pm. Register here.
An Impact membership is unique in that you can be as involved as your time and energy permits. We have so many wonderful opportunities throughout our organization for all commitment levels. We would love to help find a role for you that is a good match. To learn more, we welcome you to join us at a General Volunteer Information Zoom Town Hall on April 28 at 7:30 pm. Register here and visit our Volunteer page here.
We have some great events lined up for the year ahead - both virtual AND finally some in person too! where you can all meet, mix, and mingle. We hope you will join us! For all event and program information, watch for our newsletters or visit our website.
Regardless of how involved you choose to be, we are delighted you are here and look forward to seeing you very soon!
Onwards!
