Two years ago, the Community Impact Fund, IECF’s competitive grant opportunity, funded efforts by IE nonprofits to embark on their own journey of diversity, equity, and inclusion, and to consider how those ideas could enhance their impact.

Although the initial goal was to give out $500,000, funds were bolstered when the James Irvine Foundation offered a $250,000 contribution and the IE Funders Alliance gave $100,000.
IECF received 132 applications, paving the way for 45 nonprofits to be funded, for a total of $850,000.
