Impact Grant Beneficiaries Detail Transformational Progress

Collective Philanthropy was on full display during Impact 100 Indian Rivers annual Impact Day, held at the United Against Poverty UP Center.

The event gave current and potential members a firsthand look at how the four organizations who received last year’s $100,000 transformational grants have been using the funding. Members chatted with representatives of the four nonprofits – Indian River Soccer Academy, Treasure Coast Community Health, Youth Guidance Mentoring Academy and United Against Poverty.

Matt Tanner, Executive Director of United Against Poverty, introduced the crowd to the new 275-kilowattCunmmins generator funded by the group. They had realized the critical nature of the equipment after Hurricane Milton caused the UP Center, which served as the county’s Multi-Agency Resource Center (MARC) to lose power for five days.
