The Impact100 Oakland County Grant Process

We will be awarding three grants of $97,000 in 2024

Grant Application:  Nonprofits will start the process by completing the LOI Grant Pre-Qualification Form which becomes available on April 30.  Click the Apply button at the bottom of this screen. Once you complete the form you will receive instant feedback regarding eligibility. If eligible, nonprofits will get immediate access to the grant application which is due by June 21. Updated deadline of June 25 midnight due to widespread power outages.

Committee Reviews: Grant review committees, composed of volunteer members of Impact100 Oakland County, review the applications and financials, discuss the merits of each, chose two or three semi-finalists, perform site visits and identify finalists. Nonprofits are notified of review decisions mid-September. One finalist from each of the five focus areas is selected and asked to submit an executive summary of their proposal. This summary is emailed to the entire membership of Impact100 Oakland County prior to our Annual Grant Awards Ceremony. 

Annual Grant Awards Ceremony: Representatives from the finalist organizations make a short presentation at the November annual meeting. Each Impact100 Oakland County member votes at the meeting or by absentee ballot for her preferred grant recipients. The organizations receiving the most votes will receive the full grant awards. The grant recipients are announced at the conclusion of the ceremony!
