Through your support, 58 organizations received Community Impact Grants, for the
October - December 2023 funding period. This network of funding and collaboration is
critical in creating a community where no-one falls through the cracks in the system. In
spite of growing sector-wide strain, with an unprecedented demand for services, we
remain determined, that through advocacy and a focus on capacity building, together we
can change the power and trajectory of poverty.
