Impact100OC

Impact100OC A Community of Women Transforming Lives Through Collective Giving The model is simple, but the impact is massive.

Impact100 OC is one of more than sixty chapters worldwide and joins its sister chapters in embracing the local collective giving model. Founded in 2021, Impact100 OC brings together a diverse group of women that annually fund transformational grants to local nonprofits in Orange County. At least 100 women each give a $1,000 tax deductible donation, and together they collectively award grants in in

crements of at least $100,000 to local nonprofits in five focus areas: Arts & Culture, Education, Environment & Recreation, Family and Health & Wellness. Each member’s annual donation strengthens the power of giving and funds the innovative projects that make a high impact and sustainable difference in our community.

What an unforgettable afternoon. ✨

Our deepest gratitude to hosts Dima Malhas and Nicole Darwin for creating such a beautiful gathering at Marbella Country Club. From the incredible food and wine to the breathtaking electric violin performance by Alfiya Glow, every detail made this event truly special.

But what made the day so meaningful was hearing from Jennifer Anderson of Breast Cancer Solutions , our 2022 $38,000 Impact100 OC grant recipient.

Jennifer reminded us why we do this work.

She shared stories of local women battling breast cancer while also facing impossible financial burdens, missing work for treatments, struggling to pay rent, putting gas in their cars to get to appointments, and finding ways to put food on the table for their families. Through Breast Cancer Solutions, these women receive critical support during one of the most difficult seasons of their lives.

Jennifer also shared how our grant became so much more than $38,000. It gave Breast Cancer Solutions the credibility and leverage to secure additional funding, multiplying the impact far beyond our original investment. And perhaps most importantly, it created a lasting partnership between our organizations, one that has brought our members together to volunteer their time, talents, and hearts in support of their mission.

This is the power of collective giving.

As we close out our 2026 grant fundraising cycle, we’re reminded that every contribution becomes part of a much bigger story, one that changes lives right here in Orange County.

May 31 is the final day to make your membership contribution and help us fund our next transformational grant. Let’s finish strong.

What an incredible evening together!

Our May Impact Event benefiting Laura’s House was truly one to remember. The outpouring of support through donated items was next level, and we are so grateful to everyone who showed up with such generosity and heart.

A huge thank you to our amazing hostesses, Kristina Hildebrandt and Stacie Scifres, for putting on the event and creating such a warm and welcoming evening.

We were especially honored to hear from Debbie Corley, whose moving story reminded us exactly why organizations like Laura’s House are so important. Hearing firsthand how their services changed her life left a lasting impact on all of us.

Great food. Great wine. Great connections. And most importantly — a community of women coming together to make a difference.

Thank you to everyone who attended, donated, and supported this meaningful cause. 2026 is going to be our biggest and most impactful year yet!
