Description
Impact 100 Palm Beach County is accepting letters of inquiry to the annual grant cycle.
Impact 100 PBC seeks to fund high impact projects that:
- Foster change and have a long-term positive impact
- Are new programs or expansions/improvements of existing programs that can change the way an organization or a community operates
- Can demonstrate specific measurable goals
The goal of Impact 100 PBC is to fund programs that are visionary, daring, take risks, shift consciousness, or change the way a community or organization operates. The program should focus on the issue first and the organization second. Programs which revolve around institutional needs, fundraising goals, or the nonprofit’s internal organization do not meet the goals of Impact 100 PBC.
Impact 100 PBC has identified the following five focus areas and will appoint committees to review funding applications in each of these categories:
Arts, Culture & Historic Preservation
High impact projects or initiatives that cultivate, develop, educate, or enhance culture, the arts, or historic preservation in southern Palm BeachCounty.
