We realize $1,000 is a “stop and think” gift.
A $1000 contribution is a meaningful amount of money and that is by design. The goal is for each member to contribute enough to be invested in their gift and the transformational grants that result from it.
Each member has a vote in who the money goes to so you can still support the causes that matter most to you.
To join, or for more information about joining, visit the Membership page. You may pay by credit card (MC/VISA) or check, and may pay all at once or via monthly installments. Consult these FAQs for alternative payment methods. Your membership is good for one year through November 1.
Yes, we now accept installment payments. You may sign up anytime, but your full membership fee must be paid by November 1 in order to vote that year. Please contact us at membership@impact100newportcounty.org if you would like to enroll in a payment plan.
Each paid-in-full membership donation provides voting membership for the next calendar year. The membership year runs from November to November. Members who pay after November 1 are eligible to participate in all member activities, but are not eligible to vote until the Grant cycle.
Impact100 is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Depending on your tax status, contributions are tax-deductible for the year in which they were made. You will receive a statement of contribution from Impact100 Newport County with the amount of your donation. Please consult your tax advisor.
Although additional gifts are always welcome, each member is limited to one vote per person per year. But you can prepay your membership for subsequent years and/or sponsor others to join.
Yes, you can double your impact. We gratefully accept employer matching gifts. Donations matching your membership contribution play an important role, as they are applied toward program and operating costs. Please submit a matching request for your donation to your or your spouse’s employer. Some employers will also provide matching donations for retirees.
