We had a beautiful evening at our first signature event, Member Connect, on March 12. The evening served as a time to connect to our mission and with each other. We started the evening by hearing from past grant recipient, Ohio Valley Voices and the transformative work they are doing to ensure that every child has the right to communicate. We discussed strategic priorities for 2024 to keep advancing our impact and relevance in the philanthropic landscape, and even had time for a collaborative collage. Thank you to The Landing Event Center, Signature Events Chair Char Kemp, member Trudy Flowers for the wonderful photos, and all of the volunteers who helped put this event together.

Impact 100 Cincinnati, a woman-powered collective giving circle bringing together more than 400 members from across the region, returns for its 24th grant cycle with four, $100,000 grants available to qualifying local nonprofit organizations. “The impact that is created through funding our region’s nonprofits is just one piece of the broader impact in creating a community of informed philanthropists,” said Impact 100 Board President Janet Collins.

This convening grounds the board in their purpose, connects them in their efforts, and strategizes on the year’s priorities.
