WHY JOIN IMPACT 100 East Bay?

We’ve had a lot of members ask for information they can talk to their colleagues/friends/relatives on becoming a member, so here it is! Impact 100 has over 35 Impact 100 chapters across the U.S. and Australia. We started our local chapter, Impact 100 East Bay, 3 years ago, and serve both the Contra Costa and Alameda counties! We have over 100 members and granted a total of $266,000 to 3 local non-profit organizations and our goal is to grow this to $500,000 (Five $100k grants annually)!
ANNOUNCING THE TRIPLE STAR PROGRAM!

What if Impact 100 East Bay could award more than one transformational grant a year?  It’s possible!  To make it happen, we need to grow our membership!

Recruiting new members is as easy as inviting a friend to one of our events.  We’re even adding an incentive - the Triple Star Program.  It’s our latest way of rewarding members who spread the word about Impact 100.  Here’s how it works:
·    
    • Bring 3 guests to one of our upcoming events.  Accomplish that and you’ll receive a prize at the event.
·    
    • Refer 3 women who ultimately become members by June 2020.  Reach that recruiting goal and you’ll receive a free guest ticket to our fabulous, annual Gala event.
·    
    • Recruit the most members.  Add the most members before June 2020 and receive $150 toward your preferred charity.

We have lots of ideas to help you attract new members. You might consider:

    • Hosting a small group at your home or at another venue.  We can help make that happen.
·    
    • Asking your employer to sponsor an informational session when Impact 100 representatives would present details about our amazing philanthropic organization.

Contact Stephanie Shaw to learn more about how to help build our membership base and maximize our collective grant-giving opportunities.
