Impact 100 Palm Beach County Marks 15 Years of Collective Philanthropy with New Giving Year Launch

Impact 100 Palm Beach County will commence its 2025-2026 Giving Year with a celebration on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, at The Addison in Boca Raton. This event also commemorates the organization's 15th anniversary of transforming philanthropy through collective giving. The evening, open and complimentary for members and prospective members, will highlight the power of community-driven impact where each membership directly contributes to larger grants for deserving nonprofits across South Palm Beach County.

Janean Mileusnic, President of Impact 100 PBC, emphasized the strength of collective philanthropy, stating that every woman who joins adds $1,000 to the grant pool. This model enables the organization to award more transformative grants to local organizations working in education, arts, health, family, and the environment. Guests at the event will enjoy cocktails, hors d'oeuvres, networking opportunities, and a special program featuring success stories from past grantees and insights from the original founders about the vision for the upcoming year.

Since its inception, Impact 100 PBC has awarded millions of dollars through multiple $100,000 grants, empowering nonprofits to transform lives and strengthen the community. Celebrating its fifteenth year, the organization is channeling significant energy to make this milestone year its most impactful yet. The event details include valet availability and encouragement of carpooling, with generous sponsorship from The Addison. Additional sponsors for this year's Fall Kickoff include Neiman Marcus Boca Raton, The Boca Raton Observer, MIG Multi Image Group, and Cristino Fine Chocolates.
