About Us
The Impact100 model
Impact100 SA is a giving circle that brings together generous members who each donate $1,000 annually.Â
Their contributions are pooled to make high-impact grants to South Australian-based charities.Â
Winning charities are collectively voted by members at an annual Grant Awards Night.Â
Donations are fully tax-deductible with the full amount reaching the winning charity. Impact100 SA is a sub-fund of the Australian Communities Foundation.
