Dear Members,

One of the things I love most about Impact the Palm Beaches is that we are more than a group of women who care. We are women who take action.

One of the most rewarding aspects of our organization is seeing the direct impact of collective giving. The funds we raise stay here in Palm Beach County, supporting local nonprofits that are changing lives. By combining our resources and passion, we are proving that small actions can produce big results.

Check out this video that highlights a glimpse of our local impact, HERE

With gratitude,

Keely Gideon-Taylor

Co-President, Board of Directors

Impact the Palm Beaches

The Events Committee is Preparing for Our 3 Signature Events:

Annual Kick-Off, Grant Reveal & the Grant Awards Celebration

Our team strives to create events that are welcoming and fun, raise awareness of the organization, strengthen member relationships, and support our mission. As an independent 501(c)(3) organization, the $100-member administrative fee is primarily used to support the operating expenses necessary to fulfill our mission and sustain the organization throughout the year. While our generous event sponsors help offset many of the costs associated with our programs and events, sponsorship support alone does not fully cover event expenses.

To ensure that we can continue providing high-quality experiences for our members, we will be charging a nominal registration fee for two of our signature events: the Annual Kickoff Event and the Grant Awards Celebration. We are committed to delivering events that provide meaningful opportunities to connect, learn, celebrate our collective impact, and engage with our mission. We are confident that the value of these experiences will far exceed the cost of attendance.

Mark your Calendars for these Celebratory Events:

November 19, 2026: Annual Kickoff Event
April 7, 2027: Grant Reveal Event
April 19, 2027: Grant Awards Celebration

Details to Come!

We offer a variety of event sponsorship opportunities and benefits. To learn more, contact Margo Kohlhoff at impactmargok@gmail.com.

Looking for a meaningful way to get involved with Impact the Palm Beaches?

Consider volunteering at one of our signature events! We're seeking members to serve one-hour shifts at our Kickoff Party and Grant Awards Celebration. Volunteers assist with tasks such as registration, décor, raffle baskets, and event setup and breakdown, with schedules designed so you can still enjoy the festivities.

These events create lasting first impressions for prospective members and celebrate the incredible impact of our collective giving.

If you're interested in volunteering at an event or joining the Events Committee, contact Alanna Caron at alanna@iconiceventexperiences.com.

Help Our Ambassador Program Succeed!

Ambassadors attend business and social functions as an Impact the Palm Beaches representative to introduce our cause at gatherings.

As well...

Does your organization host events?
Do you have access to Palm Beaches event tickets?
Are you involved with Palm Beaches organizations?

If so, and you have extra event tickets, consider donating tickets to Impact so one of our Ambassadors can attend. As well, if you have access to invitation-only private functions and would like an Ambassador to join you, please contact us.

For more information on becoming an Ambassador or donate tickets/invitations, contact Charlotte Tom: impactcharlottet@gmail.com.
