Just One.
When you invite just one friend, family member or co-worker to join Impact100 Oakland County, you double our impact. That’s twice the amount of philanthropic dollars that go to our local nonprofits working tirelessly to increase the quality of life for everyone.
There are so many ways to get involved with Impact100 Oakland County, but our biggest ask each year is to help us spread the word so we can double our Impact here in Oakland County!
Our chapter’s annual membership calendar runs November – October. Members can join with their $1,000 donation anytime from November – March. In late April, our membership number (grant amounts) are announced to the non-profit community. From there, non-profits apply & volunteer member groups review grant applications. In early November, we meet for our Annual Grant Awards Ceremony where all members vote and we award our grants! From there, the cycle begins once again!
November
Membership Enrollment Begins. Members are encouraged to re-join and invite friends to come to various events held during recruitment time. Our events are open to all!
