Did you know that Impact Austin's founders, and Rebecca Powers in particular, helped to launch other #givingcircles around the country? Similarly, we benefited from best practices of earlier #collectivegiving groups. https://bit.ly/3D3xrup #impactaustin #womensphilanthropy #womeninphilanthropy #givingcircle #centraltexas #grants #bastropcounty #hayscounty #traviscounty #williamsoncounty

As women with a passion for giving back, we believe we are strongest when we learn, grow, and give together.
About us
We are an Austin-based women’s collective giving organization, funding Central Texas nonprofits that provide services in Bastrop, Hays, Travis, and Williamson counties. Since 2003, we have invested $8.84 million in 98 nonprofit partners with 126 grants. Join our collective impact! Our membership and leadership proudly reflect the many faces, cultures and walks of life that make up our society. We believe diversity helps us to better understand and address the issues facing our community. Impact Austin combines annual donations from members and gives multiple grants each spring and fall to local, worthy causes selected by our members. Our membership requirements are simply to be female and to donate $1,250 each year. Beyond this, each member can be as engaged or uninvolved as she chooses. One thousand dollars of each member’s donation goes to our grant recipients. The remaining donation supports our events, member initiatives, education programs, and operations. Grant applications are accepted in the following focus areas: Community Education Health and Well-Being Equity While no time commitment is required, members may volunteer to serve on various Impact Austin committees and events. All-volunteer Grant Review Committees analyze grant applications and recommend finalists in each focus area. https://www.impactaustin.org
