IMPACT 100 Pensacola Bay Area, Inc. (IMPACT 100) is an organization of women committed to improving their community by providing substantial grants to nonprofit organizations in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties. Started in 2003 by four local women, IMPACT 100 has become the largest IMPACT 100 chapter in the world. The idea behind IMPACT 100 involves recruiting at least 100 women to donate $1,000 each and pooling those resources into one big grant for a qualifying nonprofit. In the 21 years since the Pensacola chapter began, this organization of philanthropic women has donated more than $17 million in 165 grants to nonprofit organizations throughout the Escambia/Santa Rosa area. IMPACT 100 has no paid employees or staff, so 100% of each member’s annual contribution of $1,000 is pooled and awarded to nonprofit organizations in increments of at least $100,000 grants.
