What is a women’s collective giving group?


Historically, women have made small donations to a nonprofit and the organization uses this money to fund daily operations and expenses. While individual donations are vitally important to these organizations, imagine if you could give a non-profit $100K to execute a large dream project they might not otherwise be able to complete.


The collective giving model pools individual dollars to make significantly larger grants allowing women of all levels of wealth to participate in big gifts that make incredible impact on the local community.


Here is how it works with Impact Oklahoma:



  • Impact Oklahoma members donate $1000 to a collective pool. ($500 First Impact membership)
  • Central Oklahoma nonprofits apply for a $100K grant for a project they would not otherwise be able to undertake.
  • The grant request goes through a review process to insure its viability.
  • Five finalists are chosen to present their unique project to the ImpactOK membership at the annual meeting. You get to meet the nonprofit ambassadors and hear directly about the project.
  • Every member gets an equal vote as to which project(s) receives a $100K grant.
  • Winners are announced that evening.


Impact OK members have given over $4.4 Million to central Oklahoma nonprofits.

We would love to have you as part of our women’s collective giving group.
