Q&A Session for Potential Applicants 2024
In early April, we held an online session where potential applicants were able to seek further clarification around making an application to Impact100 WA in 2024.
We recorded a similar session in 2022 and it can be viewed by following the link at the bottom of our Grants page.
2024 Kickstart Sundowner
Another powerful year of collective giving
Over 100 of our donors and friends gathered for drinks and nibbles at the delightful FORM Gallery & Cafe in Claremont, where there was a great new exhibition, Represent | Part 2, inside and a perfect evening and venue to mingle outside.
Guests were treated to inspiring presentations by two of Impact100 WA’s recent $100,000 grant recipients, 12 Buckets and Fair Game.
Chloe of Fair Game shared about the benefits that Kimberley kids (and their communities) have found thanks to their after-school active movement games and other programs over the last year. They have had an average attendance this year of 47 kids/week in Kunnururra and 42 kids/week in Broome. And they have welcomed a 17yr old previous attendee into a trainee project officer role, giving her practical experience and growing her confidence.
–12 Buckets CEO, Larissa, related some moving stories of how they are addressing the scary transition to high school for at-risk kids from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds. They have enabled connections between the kids who are now actively supporting each other, even outside of the 12 Buckets room. And the kids are benefiting from the extra input and safe space that has been created for them.
It was very clear that both organisations are creating powerful positive change in the WA community as well as enhancing their reach and their reputations.
It was wonderful to see and mingle with so many engaged donors, all keen to know what their $1000 has achieved, as well as how they can contribute again this year. It truly is an amazing feeling to know you are part of making such a significant difference with these collective $100,000 transformational grants.
