A women-led giving circle that pools member donations to fund high-impact grants for nonprofits serving southern Palm Beach County (primarily $100,000 high-impact grants and merit grants).
Impact 100 Palm Beach County Inc centers its grantmaking on one repeated structure: member-voted, $100,000 awards for nonprofit projects in Palm Beach County. The pattern is visible across recent grants, where organizations serving children, families, education, health, the environment, and arts and culture each received the same large award size. That makes the foundation less about many small checks and more about a collective decision to back a few local projects at a substantial level. Recent awards show that the funder supports a mix of human services and community-serving institutions. Friends of Foster Children of Palm Beach, Families First of Palm Beach County, and The Soup Kitchen Inc each appear among the larger awards, alongside groups such as Youth Orchestra of Palm Beach Co and the Mandel JCC of the Palm Beaches. The grants are tied to local nonprofit work in southern Palm Beach County, with several recipients based in West Palm Beach, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, and Boca Raton. The foundation also makes smaller merit grants in addition to its $100,000 awards, reinforcing a model built around competitive selection and project-focused support rather than broad operating support.
In human services, the foundation backed Feeding Palm Beach County with a $100,000 grant in 2025, and it also awarded $100,000 to Families First of Palm Beach County that same year. Those grants fit a local pattern of funding organizations serving residents in need across Palm Beach County. Education and youth development are another clear thread. Florida Atlantic Univ Foundation received a $21,900 grant in 2025, while Youth Orchestra of Palm Beach Co received a $100,000 award the same year. Earlier grants also went to organizations such as The Unicorn Children's Foundation I and Florence Fuller Child Devcenters. Arts and culture appear alongside community services. Benzaiten Center for Creative Arts received a $21,900 grant in 2025, and Young Singers of the Palm Beach received a $100,000 grant in 2023. The foundation also funded Marine Education Initiative and environmental work through grants to organizations like Xcel Strategies Inc.
The grant-size profile is highly uniform: p25, median, and p75 are all $100,000. That matches the foundation’s member-voted model, where one or more high-impact awards anchor the annual cycle and smaller merit grants are added in some years. The recent-grants list shows repeated annual activity in 2023, 2024, and 2025, pointing to recurring grantmaking rather than a one-off distribution. It is a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does accept unsolicited applications through LOI-based competitive processes.
