$2.88 Million in Impactful Funding Awarded To 35 Local Organizations

Congratulations to our 2024 Ignite Grantees and 2024 Core Grant Finalists!

We were thrilled to be joined by so many members at our annual Finalist Reveal on October 9th at Whitechapel Projects when we announced our 2024 Ignite Grant Recipients and Core Impact 100 Grant Finalists. Congratulations to these wonderful organizations!

Thank you to our 366 members who have made it possible for our 2024 grant pool to fund three grants possible for our 2024 grant pool to fund three grants of $100,000, five Mission Awards of $10,000 each and, new this year, four Ignite grants of $4,000 each!

Our Ignite grants pilot, designed to extend the reach of our funding to smaller nonprofits making a positive impact in our community but ineligible to apply for our core grants process (unless as a collaboration), was a resounding success. We are thrilled with the response we’ve had from within Impact and the community at large, and hope we can continue with this grant program in the future.

Annual Meeting: November 18

Our Annual Meeting is on November 18 at The Vogel in Red Bank when we will award three Impact grants of $100,000 and five Mission Awards of $10,000. Our members will learn about the 8 finalists’ compelling proposals and cast their votes for the 2024 grant recipients. Members, please RSVP and request an absentee ballot if you cannot attend.

We look forward to continuing to MAKE AN IMPACT across Monmouth County.

WHO WE ARE

We are women of different ages and backgrounds who combine our charitable dollars, experience, and energy to make a tangible difference in our area. Impact Jersey Coast is part of a growing international movement that empowers women to fund transformational changes in our local communities.

OUR GOALS

We will create a forum to raise awareness of our community’s most pressing needs and fund transformational grants for high-impact projects addressing those needs. We will also strengthen and expand our giving circle to encompass the richness of ideas, perspectives, and the participation of diverse women from a wide range of identities.

HOW IMPACT 100 WORKS

The Impact 100 model empowers 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.
