Non-Membership Donations

Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis accepts donations in addition to membership donations. We honor those who make non-membership donations to support our cause with the title of “Friend.”

In appreciation of our Friends’ contributions, we celebrate all Friends who contribute $250 or more, either monetarily or in-kind, on our website and in our annual Giving Report.

Donations to Cover Operating Costs

One of the primary goals of Impact 100 is to ensure that 100% of each membership donation goes directly to the annual Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis grant pool.

There are two easy options to make a donation to our Friends (Operations) account:

All information entered on these forms is kept secure, and we do not share, rent, or sell member information for any purpose. Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis is an IRS recognized 501(C)(3) charitable organization. Your donation is tax deductible to the full extent permitted by law.

Donations to the Grant Pool

You may also choose to make a non-membership donation to our Grant Pool, ensuring your gift goes to local nonprofits through our Change Maker and Community Support grants. You can do this using our online donation form. It gives you options as to how you want your donation used, including:

  • Leaders of the Future Scholarship: Since 2013 we have been making a difference in shaping the philanthropic perspectives of women new in their public service participation through our Leaders of the Future Scholarship program, which covers the cost of membership for promising new philanthropists. For more about our Leaders of the Future Scholarship read our blog posting on Scholarships.
  • Change Maker Grant Pool: The bulk of our grant pool each year comes from membership donations, with each member having the right to participate in our granting process. But we also accept additional money to increase the grant pool allowing us to grow the amount of money Indianapolis area nonprofits receive each year.
