The Impact100 Model
The Impact100 model is designed to empower women to see themselves as philanthropists and overcome the barriers women have historically faced in this arena. The model is designed for transformational grant-making within local communities, with a minimum grant size of $100,000.
BECOME A MEMBER Focus Area
We provide non-profit organizations with grants in increments of at least $100,000 across five broad Focus Areas:
APPLY FOR A GRANT How it Works
The annual $1,000 donations of Impact100 Houston members are pooled into a grant fund to be given away to nonprofit organizations serving Harris County. The number and size of grants awarded are dependent on our membership, but our goal is to give incremental grants of $100,000 each year. Grants can be awarded in the areas of Arts & Culture, Education, Family, Health & Wellness, and Environment. Grants are awarded based on a vote of the Impact100 Houston membership at our annual meeting. Every woman who gives $1,000 or more has one vote.
