Impact100 South Jersey, a Haddonfield-based collective giving circle, has announced the recruitment of 191 members for 2025 that will allow it to award $191,000 to local nonprofits. 

Since launching in 2017, Impact100 South Jersey has raised more than $1.4 million for organizations serving Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Cumberland counties. To announce the news, new year members and sponsors gathered earlier this month for a big reveal and celebration at the Camden County Boathouse in Pennsauken.

Impact100 South Jersey strives to recruit 100 women annually who each donate $1,000, with the goal of awarding a $100,000 Core Mission Grant to a local organization. The group has exceeded that goal every year since 2018, allowing it to support several organizations each year. 

“We are grateful to all of our 2025 members and sponsors, and proud to be a catalyst for South Jersey women who want to be part of bringing transformative change to nonprofits serving our region,” said Impact100 South Jersey president Kyle Ruffin.

“Our goal has always been to provide a funding source by South Jersey for South Jersey. And we thank all the women and organizations that have made this possible for the past several years.”

Impact100 South Jersey has transitioned into its 2025 grant process, where members vet organizations applying for funding, including for the Core Mission Grant, two $30,500 general operating grants and three $10,000 Community Heroes grants. The process will culminate at the Impact100 South Jersey annual meeting on June 12, when members will hear from nonprofit finalists and vote on recipients. 

“The Community Heroes grants are awarded to smaller nonprofits that do not yet meet the criteria for the $100,000 Core Mission Grant, but still have great programs that need funding,” Ruffin explained. “Nonprofit organizations with annual operating budgets under $500,000 can start applying for these $10,000 grants on Jan. 20.”
