About Impact100 Nashville
Impact100 Nashville’s defining feature is pooled women’s philanthropic giving aimed at social transformation in Greater Nashville. The foundation awards large competitive grants to local nonprofits working in arts and culture, education, environment and preservation, family, and health and wellness, with a clear emphasis on innovation and measurable community impact. Recent awards show repeated $100,000 commitments to organizations such as Dream Streets and Community Resource Center, alongside support for other Nashville-area groups that serve underserved populations in Middle Tennessee.
The grantmaking pattern is centered on established nonprofits and new approaches. Some awards are framed as transformation and innovation grants for organizations with sustainable plans to expand services, reach new populations, or work in new geographies. Other tracks support new ideas through the Spark Grant program, which is open to organizations of any size. The portfolio also includes grants for community-based work in the city and surrounding Middle Tennessee region, reflecting a local funder focused on practical outcomes rather than broad national dispersal. Leadership is listed with Tina Percy.

Family and health-related work appear as well. In 2023, Homeland Heart received $25,000, and Shower Up received $100,000 in 2024, showing that the foundation backs both family-strengthening services and community health or wellness efforts through local nonprofits in Middle Tennessee.
