The Focus Area Committee review of grant applications is the heart and soul of our mission at Impact100 Northwest Florida. These $100,000 grants to nonprofits serving Okaloosa and Walton Counties will make a huge difference in the lives of so many in our community. We invite as many members to join us in this endeavor.
The Sign Up will be open until July 31st. Member orientation will occur in mid-August with site visits starting in September. All committee work is expected to be finished by the beginning of October.
Site visits will be in-person this year. For those not available during the day, there are two Focus Area Committees that will meet in the evenings. Those committees are: Arts & Culture as well as Environment, Recreation & Preservation.
Arts & Culture--initiatives that will cultivate, enrich, develop and enhance the cultural, artistic and historic climate/aspects available within the community.
