Volunteer for the 18th Annual Celebration! 

Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis is excited to finalize plans for our 18th Annual Awards Celebration on June 13, 2023, in downtown Indianapolis at the charming Heirloom, just a few steps from Lucas Oil Stadium. This is our biggest night of the year when we award the $100,000 Change Maker grant! The event begins at 5:00pm. You can learn more and purchase tickets here.

Volunteer Opportunities are available!

Volunteering not only is important to help us make the night special for our guests, but it’s also a great opportunity to meet other members. Most of the shifts are staggered, and we put all event activities on hold during the Focus Area presentations so volunteers don’t miss a thing.

Please take the time to look at the following areas where we need volunteers. Once you find one or two that interest you, send an email to Emilie Britt, our Volunteer Coordinator, at impact100@gmail.com with any questions or to sign-up for a volunteer activity.

Bring an Impact Friend and volunteer together. Everything is more fun with a friend!
