AboutThe Women of Impact program is dedicated to enriching the lives of local women through economic and career advancement. The program was established in 2021 by a group of community leaders who shared a common belief that the success of women has a direct impact on the health and stability of a community. Women of Impact will provide support for women who seek to advance themselves but are in need of financial assistance to reach their goals.
