Impact 100 thank you for what you are doing .I don’t know how many applied for this grant. If possible I would recommend giving each that applied money. Your giving to the community is greatly appreciated.
Another fabulous result. Congratulations to the winners, but also to the other finalists and to those who applied and didn’t make the finals. The exposure that you get in the community will invariable help with your missions. And, as any of the winners will tell you, if you don’t win, apply again next year!!!
