100 WHO Give Inc makes operating support a clear pattern: its recent grants are directed to North Carolina nonprofits in Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Durham, and Wake Forest, with the largest award of $26,343 going to Wake Monarch Academy for support operating costs. The foundation’s giving also reaches organizations serving family stability, health, and community support, including $20,700 to Hope Renovations and $17,063 to Family Promise of the Triangle, both for operating costs. That emphasis on core funding appears throughout the recent grants list, where every listed award is described as support operating costs rather than a project-specific restriction. The foundation’s profile is closely tied to local giving circles. Its active programs describe quarterly PhilanthroParty grants and Hawkeye Chapter giving circles that collectively award funds to a selected local nonprofit, with members nominating and voting on beneficiaries. Across the recent grants, the grants are sized in the five-figure and low-five-figure range, and the pattern points to practical support for community-based organizations rather than individuals or program-related investments. Carolyn Walters is listed in leadership, and the organization’s legal name is 100 WHO GIVE INC.
Operating support is the dominant theme in the recent grants list. In 2025, 100 WHO Give Inc awarded $14,832 to Neighbor to Neighbor in Raleigh for support operating costs, and $13,550 to Made4Me in Raleigh for the same purpose. The foundation also funded health and family-serving organizations with core support. New Leaf Behavioral Health in Raleigh received $11,300 for operating costs, while Equity Before Birth in Durham received $8,000 for the same type of support. Community-based housing and empowerment work appears as well. Hope Renovations in Chapel Hill received $20,700 for support operating costs, and Porch in Chapel Hill received $8,300 for support operating costs. The grant descriptions suggest a consistent preference for unrestricted or general operating support across different local service models.
Typical grant sizes cluster in the low five figures: p25 is $7,625, median is $9,850, and p75 is $15,390. The recent list also shows a wider upper end, with one award above $26,000 and several grants between roughly $6,000 and $17,000. The organization’s active programs describe quarterly giving-circle grants, with members nominating and voting on a beneficiary and 100% of member donations going to the selected charity. The data also points to repeat, locally directed grantmaking rather than one-off national awards, and it does not show grants to individuals or program-related investments.
