President's Message
Summer at Impact SA is grant review time. This is one of the most meaningful parts of our year, as our member volunteers carefully review applications and consider which projects can make the greatest impact in our community. Narrowing it down from this year’s 99 applications to just our 10 finalists is no easy task.Read more.
