Creating Energy

We are midway through our 2023 grant year, and the Impact100 MD board is hard at work creating new energy around the issues that are most important to our nonprofits, our community, and our members.  As we move closer the holiday season, our calendar is filled with events that bring us together to increase our impact, and help us grow in service to all those who make Metro Detroit a great place to live, work and play.

Our 4th annual Women Who Impact Breakfast, always one of our biggest events of the year, is officially sold out! 


All credit for the hot ticket sales goes to our outstanding speakers. We are proud to feature three of Detroit's leading philanthropists, Laura Grannemann, Vice President, Rocket Community Fund and Executive Director, Gilbert Family Foundation; Nancy Tellem, Co-Founder, BasBlue - a nonprofit space dedicated to women's needs; and Renee Fluker, Founder and President, Midnight Golf. Leading the discussion is Denise Brooks Williams, Senior Vice President and CEO of Markets, Henry Ford Health. These women are committed to making our community the best place to live for everyone. Be sure to check out our next newsletter for a summary of the event and some video footage, as well.
