Grant Standards
We value and award local and global organizations based on these six principles:
High Impact: Organizations that make an obvious, positive change in the cause being served.
Education: Organizations that make education a priority: for the recipients, for the organization as a whole, or for the community.
Sustainability: Organizations committed to lasting change that create self-reliance for the organization and the individuals they serve.
Community Building: Organizations that demonstrate teamwork & collaboration among individuals and organizations.
Innovative: Organizations that strive for original and courageous ways to transform the world, using new perspectives and solutions to achieve their goals.
Measurable: Organizations that are results oriented and whose efforts are quantifiable, with specific, achievable goals, objectives, and action plans.
To Qualify for an Impact Giving Grant, an organization must be a nonprofit organization with tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
