Message from the Board Embracing Impact Together: Uniting for a Common Purpose
Since January, our journey has been a tapestry of shared moments, from the meticulous planning by our dedicated Board of Directors at our annual retreat to the magic of our "Evening with Impact" event that brought us together in unity. Our time spent with our 2023 grant recipients was a heartfelt reminder of the ripples of change that begin with each one of you. Their stories echo the impact we can make when we come together with a common purpose. Our organization stands on the incredible strength of women coming together, uniting their passions, resources and determination to make game changing grants to local nonprofits. The collective giving power of women is a force that has consistently driven positive change and created lasting impacts. Our collective giving is not just about financial contributions; it's about the impact we create, the lives we touch and the legacy we build together when we unite for a common purpose. In the heart of Impact100 Atlanta, we find strength in this unity. Thank you for being the soul of Impact100 Atlanta. With heartfelt gratitude, Sherrhonda President, Impact100 Atlanta |
