Our organization is thrilled to announce that we’ve been chosen as one of the top four finalists for the Impact100 Traverse City Grant awards! This exciting news was revealed at the Impact100 Meet the Finalists event at Rove Winery on Wednesday, August 28th.

Impact100 is a community-driven giving group in Traverse City. Members pool together $1,000 each to fund grants upwards of $100,000 for local nonprofits. These grants support causes in areas like arts, education, environment, family, and health. The winners are decided by a democratic vote among Impact100 members.
We’ll be presenting our project to the entire Impact100 audience on September 25th at the Award Night event. We’re incredibly thankful to Phyllis Kladder for her dedication to our grant application and to everyone who participated in the site visit and offered their support.
