Why not sponsor someone to become an Impact 100 London member? Effectively breaking down a barrier to participation in our unique model of philanthropy, sponsored members enhance our community by broadening and diversifying our membership. If we could double the number of sponsored members in 2025, we could grant an additional £80k! Contact Aniela: aniela@impact100london.org if you know someone you want to sponsor or would like to contribute to the sponsorship fund. #collectivephilanthropy #collectiveimpact #womeninphilanthropy #grantmaking #womenandgirls #empoweringwomen #givingback
