Our goal is to address unmet needs in the Philadelphia region and raise the profile of smaller nonprofit organizations. Impact100 grant funds may be spent on necessary infrastructure, staff salaries, primary programs or services, or other expenses that strengthen an organization and enhance its ability to do its core work. A central question in our application is Why now?

We ask applicants why this juncture in particular is the time that a $100,000 grant will have a large impact on the organization. Each year, our grant funding is determined by the number of women who join Impact100 by November 15. By mid-December, we announce the grant funding total to be awarded the following June.

Our process begins with applications due in November . Applicants submit a Request for Funding (RFF) for a $100,000 operating grant. Applications are reviewed by Grant Review Committees from January to April.

In mid-May, grant finalists are announced and then grant recipients are determined by a vote of the membership. We recommend that applicants review Impact100’s Eligibility Criteria carefully, and consider attending our Grant Application Information Session in the fall. Eligibility/Funding Priorities div.
