Become A Member
100% of each member’s donation is given directly to the selected charity. Although no time commitment is required, we know members feel more connected when they get involved by joining a grant application review or focus area committee, participating in our Days of Service, and joining in social events. As a member, you will also be invited to the Annual Meeting each Fall where finalists will present their project, and members vote on the grant recipient. The best part? Votes will be tallied and winners will be announced during the meeting. You get to see the impact you are helping to make, right then and there!
We know the $1,000 donation toward the transformational grant is a “stop and think” decision. For many of our members, $1,000 represents sacrifice and intentional budgeting to make a charitable gift of this size. This is by design. The goal is that each member feels connected to their giving and to the transformational grants that are a result of their gifts. We offer the ability to set up a payment plan to pay over the course of the year, instead of in a lump sum.
Click on the links below to complete your membership form and pay your annual contribution. All contributions are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law. One-hundred percent of each $1,000 donation goes to a community nonprofit each year.
We rely almost fully on those who join as a 110% Member to defray critical operating expenses such as web hosting fees, insurance, maintenance of nonprofit status, and our annual events. Please consider adding the additional 10% to your membership contribution.
For your convenience, we offer multiple ways to join – e-Check, Credit Card, Paper Check or by Installment.
To keep costs low, we charge an additional fee for Credit Card payments to cover the processing fees.
Reach out to treasurer@impact100greaterchesapeake.org if you would like to set up a custom payment plan (ex. $100 monthly).
