Impact100 Greater Milwaukee

OUR MISSION Impact100 Greater Milwaukee is an organization of women who collectively award transformative grants that make a lasting impact on the community. It is a simple idea: one woman, one vote. Women make a fully tax deductible donation of $1,100 annually, $1,000 of which goes directly to our grants. The remaining $100 supports Impact100 Greater Milwaukee‘s operational expenses. Following a rigorous evaluation process by our members, finalists present to the full membership at the Annual Awards Celebration. Following the presentations that night, members vote and the grant recipients are announced. For every 100 members, we award one $100,000 grant and divide the balance of funds among the remaining finalists. The more members we have, the more we can award. Impact100 Greater Milwaukee is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) organization relying on the skills and talents of its members. We strive to be an inclusive, diverse organization of women growing as knowledgeable philanthropists in supporting our local nonprofits in the Greater Milwaukee community. OUR CORE VALUES Empower women to be philanthropic decision makers. Raise our members‘ awareness of nonprofit organizations in our community. Every member receives an equal vote in the awarding of grants. Ensure that $1,000 of each member‘s donation goes directly to grant awards. We strive for transparency, accountability, innovation and continuous improvement.
