Thanks to all those who share their blessings with those less fortunate.
What an immense blessing Impact 100 is to NW Florida. I would not be able to make the choices you must make. Too many needy organizations – but they have an annual chance to be chosen. Your requirements are appropriate and necessary to make your choices. God Bless each and every one of you.
