5 MIN = $26,400
The above photo was from our 7th ImpactClub® Event on Tuesday the 14th. The sheer emotion from Natalie and her mom upon “winning” $26,400 for their non-profit The Spanish Speaking Community of Maryland was amazing. Natalie could hardly compose herself as she was overcome with emotion upon hearing that they received a HUGE donation.
That amount is HUGE. Do you realize how much effort it takes charities to raise that amount of money? MONTHS! MONTHS! And if they are trying to get a grant for those funds they have to fill out hundreds of papers, submit a proposal and wait… wait… and they might or might not get the grant.
But the ImpactClub® is different.
The ImpactClub® was set-up as a platform to help those generous, caring individuals in the community that don’t have tens of thousands of dollars to donate locally to make an impact to combine, crowdfund if you will, their $100 each quarter with other generous, caring philanthropist in the community to have a massive impact!
The ImpactClub® for individuals is a great way, probably the best I have ever seen, platform for those who want to give but don’t think their money will go very far is incredible.
Then let’s talk about the impact for the local charities.
ImpactClub® provides quite a few benefits for these local charities. First, it provides them a platform to get in front of 100, 200, 300 local individuals who are already committed to giving back. Having the chance to stand in front of those local philanthropist for 5 minutes and share their story and connect with those in attendance is HUGE!
Then, we bring in professional videographers to each of our ImpactClub® events, to capture the evening and to, specifically, capture each presenters/charities story. A couple of weeks after the event each of the 3 presenting charities will get a link to their story to use/share however they want! This is powerful because they can now, when going to talk to others about potentially donating, can send them the link to their ‘Story.’
However, the most impactful aspect of ImpactClub®, is that 3 charities present for 5 minutes each and then one walks away with a MASSIVE donation!
No strings attached.
They don’t have to fill out 100s of pages for a grant. They don’t have to plan months/years to get that huge donation. They fill out a 250 word ‘about the charity’ so we can use on the ballots and they have to prepare a 5 minute ‘Story’.
And the beauty. All of each and every ImpactClub® member’s $100 donation goes DIRECTLY to the Charity. No overhead fee. No Adm fee.
As you can see from above, the sheer emotion of ‘winning’ $26,400 is OVERWHELMING!
Keep spreading the word as we often say… ‘Your voice is more powerful than your money.!’
