What You're Saying

I give because when I was 13 I received a Christmas present from a total stranger and felt the love that comes from a simple act of kindness. Impact allows me to feel like I’m giving Christmas presents all year long.

2009 Grant Recipients

Since its inception in 2001, Impact 100 has given over $1,600,000 to Greater Cincinnati non-profits. Our 2009 membership totals 206 members, which means we are able to give out two grants of $103,000 each. After the voting during out Annual Awards Celebration in September, our members voted to award this year's 2009 grants to:

Lighthouse Youth Services will be able to extend the hours of the Anthony House from 10 hours to 25 hours a week and provide nursing services to homeless youths 18-24.

The Economic Center for Education & Research will extend their StEP program from 19 schools to 23 schools and reach over 3000 more students a year.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to each of the deserving finalists, and regret only that we are not able to fund every one of them. The work they do in our community continues to inspire us. Members or friends who wish to help one of these five organizations further can view each one's Wish List on the Member Info page.
