Thank you to so many who attended last Thursday night’s Voting Event and Celebration. We were 75 strong in attendance via Zoom, and together awarded our first ever $90,000 grant to Raphah Institute in the category of ending the cycle by helping communities heal from social harm. To learn more about their work, see https://raphah.org
Raphah is a Hebrew verb that means “to heal”. It literally means to mend by stitching, very much like you would repair a torn garment. This is the vision and work of Raphah Institute. Structural and systemic defects in a community can leave many people tattered and torn - ripped - with very few healthy options to cope. Without opportunities for healing or transformation, the result is generational cycles of harm. What if we could confront those defects and interrupt those complicated, layered cycles? Raphah believes we can interrupt the complicated layers of damage by working together and focusing on restoration, repair, and healing to help people thrive.
We are now accepting members for the 2021 cycle. Please join today (and invite your network) and help us reach our goal of increasing our IMPACT in Nashville. Join at https://nashville.impact100council.org/membership. Our goal is to grow to 200 members awarding two $100,000 grants next year. With your help, we can do it!
Happy Thanksgiving. We and our non-profit grant recipients are thankful for your support and commitment to improving the lives of residents of the greater Nashville area.
Impact100 Nashville Board of Directors
Let's get to 200 members!
There are three ways you can help Impact Nashville continue to grow its IMPACT in the greater Nashville area:
We are about to open membership for the 2021 year. Help us gain new members from your network. Invite a guest to the November 12 Voting Event (and be entered into a raffle). If you have a group of people you’d like to introduce to Impact100, a board member is happy to conduct a virtual presentation to your group. Just let us know at info@nashville.impact100council.org.
Invite the company you work for to support Impact100 by becoming a sponsor. A sponsorship anywhere from $500 up to $5000 will help Impact100 conduct its business in 2021 and reach even more people. If you want help making the pitch to your company, please contact janet@deltablvd.com
If you work for a company that supports women’s initiatives, we’d love to partner with you to deliver a presentation to the women of your company about Impact100 and the way we support the diverse Nashville community.
