Every Voice Fellowship
We would like to see Impact100 Essex reflect the makeup of Essex County itself. The Every Voice Fellowship was created to amplify important, often underheard or missing voices from our community. We seek Fellows with an interest in the organization and its work. It is our hope that once involved with Impact100, the Fellows will seek full membership in Year 3 of Fellowship.
The number of Fellows will vary from year to year. Fellows will receive a full year of membership, and participate in all aspects of Impact100 Essex including committees and voting on the Final Grant Recipient.
How It Works:
Contribution Made By Fellow
Year 1: $300
Year 2: $500
Year 3: $1,100
If you are interested in becoming a Fellow for the 2022 Grant Cycle, or would like to refer someone, please contact our Membership committee chairs at membership@impact100essex.org.
Be a Corporate Sponsor
Sponsors make a bold and visible commitment to Essex County by supporting memberships, our outreach, operational expenses and by offering in-kind services -- while gaining unique opportunities to work in collaboration with our membership. What a great way to increase your corporate visibility with our membership and within the community!
As a sponsor, you become our partner at Impact100 Essex. You will have the option to join grant making tours at nonprofit applicants, and will be featured in our communications materials. Corporate sponsors are welcome to join our committee and/or volunteer work.
Become a sponsor at one of these benefit levels -- or, we can tailor a sponsorship to meet your business interests and objectives.
