5 Things to Know Before Applying

It's Not Who You Know at Impact100 ATL!

• It’s about the quality of your application, how well you describe your initiative and how it will make a difference in our community. Dozens of Impact100 ATL members serve on our review committees and participate in our impartial review process. Every grant application is viewed on its own merit and any reviewer’s bias is disclosed and managed accordingly.

Impact100 ATL Members Are Exposed to and Educated About Your Nonprofit’s Mission

• Even if you are not selected as a current year grant award finalist or recipient, our Impact100 ATL committee members learn about your mission and programs for the first time through the application review process. This can lead to bringing new supporters – and potential donors – to your organization.

Site Visits Are a Key Component of Our Review Process

• Our Impact100 ATL members relish the opportunity to have in person exposure to our potential grant recipients. It enhances their understanding of your mission and programs and increases their knowledge of the various needs in our community. Our nonprofits often remark that our process helps them ‘to be better’ and to clearly articulate their mission, goals and objectives.

Grant Award Recipients Benefit From 24 Months of Opportunities for Additional Support From Our Members

• During this period, through a program called Impact In Action, we encourage nonprofits to offer Impact100 ATL members multiple opportunities to share their time, treasure, and talent to support your initiatives of which we are invested.

We Offer Tools and Trainings for the Grant Application Process

• Impact100 ATL hosts information sessions and workshops for nonprofits to learn more about our model and mission, grant cycles, and application process. It is our goal to help all nonprofits in our 11 county region to know about us and have access to the tools necessary to submit the best application possible.
