These organizations are eligible for multi-year grants as well as consistent year-over-year promotion of their efforts. Impact Partners are asked to share content related to their grant throughout the year as well as participate in designated stewardship activities, such as attending Foundation events, and engaging in donor calls and other donor recognition efforts.
