How One Member Leveraged Her Impact

How One Member Leveraged Her Impact

SJ WOMEN GIVE
In June, Impact100 SJ members awarded Ronald McDonald House of Southern NJ $27,500 to replace the carpet throughout the Camden facility with easier to maintain flooring. They had applied for the $100k Core Mission Grant for this project, but our members were thrilled that the organization didn't walk away empty-handed. We knew they, at least, had a large chunk of what they needed to complete the renovation. But that wasn't enough for Jackie Cometz, who became part of Impact100 SJ collective giving initiative last October. Impact100 SJ Leadership Council presents Ronald McDonald House of Southern NJ with $27.5k General Operating…

The Impact100 South Jersey Annual Meeting is the most exciting night of the year. It's the culmination of a year of hard work engaging new members, re-engaging existing members and managing a very stringent grant review process. Our volunteers work hard and the annual meeting gives them a chance to network and celebrate what we've accomplished together. But, of course, the real reason for getting together is to hear from our grant candidates and vote to award the grants to which we all contributed. 2019 Annual Meeting Photo Gallery Click on the photo to enlarge.
