IMPACT REVIEW
I was humbled and delighted to be invited as patron
of Impact100 WA. The purpose of Impact100 WA
is simple, to encourage Australians to give and be
involved in the outcome of that giving.
Impact100 WA provides an opportunity for
individual donors to be part of a much larger
whole. With the organisation operated by
volunteers, every cent you give will reach a
community group directly.
By unlocking grassroots philanthropy and community
investment in this way, we are empowered as
individuals to support community initiatives at a
scale that we may not have imagined.
This is why I joined Impact100 WA and am proud to
be its patron.
NICOLA FORREST, PATRON
Over the last 4 years Impact100 WA membership
has grown to nearly 200 people donating
$595,000 to Western Australian charities. In 2015
we were able to offer two $100,000 grants, and in
2016 we hope to offer three.
Initially the aim was 100 people donating $1,000
each, annually. We set the bar too low! The new
goal is 1,000 members donating $1 million each
year into our community.
I hope you can join us and become part of a
community that is making an impact for our
most vulnerable.

SELECTION PROCESS
“The rigour and attention to detail in the overall
process reassures me that all of the finalists on
the night are of the right calibre to employ a
major grant effectively. So, even if my favourtie
doesn’t win, I’m happy”
ONE OF OUR INAUGURAL DONORS
Each year we invite not-for-profits working
in WA to submit their initial application for a
$100,000 Primary Grant. We have generally
received between 20-40 initial proposals which
our donors are then invited to collectively review
and vote for a top 8 (from 2016 it will be 10)
based on merit. These selected charities submit
a final application together with accounts,
annual reports, board resumés, etc. Each one
is visited at their premises by participating
donors led by a committee member. Once
more, interested donors meet to review this
material under the guidance of the Grants sub-
committee and then collectively select the
top 4 (5 from 2016 on) to make a presentation at
our Annual Grant Awards. At this heart-warming
and celebratory event, the winner(s) are selected
by the votes of all our donors. It’s a thorough,
rigourous review that as many donors who wish
can be a part of.
GREAT OUTCOMES FOR CHARITIES
Opportunity for strategic review: Several
applicants have commented on how just going
through our process has helped to streamline
their strategic thinking and planning
Presentation mentoring for final applicants:
All finalists receive individual coaching on
presentation skills from accredited public speakers
Improved profile: As well as creating exposure to
a large group of interested people, Impact100 WA
works hard to raise profiles by engaging local,
regional and interstate press
Opportunity to leverage grants: It’s always easier
to raise money when you have already got core
funding or proved your pilot program
New supporters and volunteers: Each year
additional donations have gone to secondary grant
winners and private donations have been made by
individuals heartened by the cause
“We were so thrilled to be one of the four finalists and
have the opportunity to tell our story to a room full of
people interested in giving. It was a wonderful night
for us - the $10,000 ‘consolation’ grant was a fantastic
surprise and the unexpected spontaneous donation
of $10,000 was really the cherry on the top!”

WINTER SCHOOL UNIFORM PROGRAM:
Using Impact100 WA’s $100,000 Primary Grant,
1000 winter school uniforms were distributed
to 1000 disadvantaged primary school kids, kits
included: one winter tracksuit with their school
emblem, one padded rainproof jacket, a pair of
running shoes and two pairs of socks.
Behavioural incidents down:
In the first term of 2012 at a Primary School in
a disadvantaged area, 71 behaviour incidents
infringed the schools behaviour code, by term
four this fell to 35 with only 10 severe behaviour
breaches. The Principal said that much of this
could be put down to the Manna Inc Winter
School Uniform Program because the students
now had a uniform that looked like all the other
students and they could blend in. 69% of the
parents of children at the primary school were
welfare dependent in 2012 and the principal
said the program neutralises the effects of
poverty in the school environment. She said that
without Manna Inc the school would not have
achieved what it has achieved in behavioural and
attendance improvements.
“It’s exciting to see a young person’s face light
up when they receive simple items like shoes.
Last year. Manna discovered a talented young
basketball player who couldn’t take to the court
because he didn’t have the correct shoes. We
provided basket- ball shoes and he then joined
the team.“
BEV LOWE, FOUNDER OF MANNA INC
“The grant gives us breathing space. Knowing we
have the money up front we can now think about
coordinating next year”

EDVENTURES STORY:
Edventures philosophy is “help others to
help themselves”. 3 new schools in WA:
Belmont, Canning and South Perth had the
Edventures Young Women’s and Young
Men’s program run across 18 months. 120
at risk children between the ages of 9
and 12 attended a weekly ongoing early
intervention program designed to keep
them engaged with school as well as
provide skills for life. Weekly work-shopping
on key areas such as health, hygiene, job
preparation and protective behaviours (safe
on-line practices, drugs and alcohol abuse)
provided the opportunity to give young
people positive decision making tools.
Building confidence and self esteem
Feedback from attending students showed 80% of the
young people said that they felt more self-confident
and that their self-worth had increased. 90% said they
now know where to go if they need help. The Vice
Principal of a school in Cloverdale said the program
had a profound impact on the students taking part:
“There are some good outcomes for the community as
well as the young people themselves.”
“For this program to run for a year it costs about
$150,000, working with 120 young people. As a contrast,
if a young person gets registered as a PPO (prolific
problem offender) those kids are costing the system
$500,000 each, if we can prevent one of these kids
falling into that PPO category, the cost benefit is plain
to see.”

IMPACT REVIEW
STREET HEALTH PROGRAM
There are approximately 9500 homeless people
in Perth and their health is characterised by
multiple chronic conditions, including mental
health issues and drug and alcohol problems,
all of which can exacerbate the cycle of
homelessness and cut life expectancy.
In the past six months, 299 people sleeping
rough on Perth’s streets have accounted for
more than 1000 emergency department visits,
400 hospitalisations and nearly 300 ambulance
transports. An Emergency Dept presentation costs
$528, while a single night in hospital costs $984.
There are many barriers to healthcare for homeless
people, the main one being that they are
preoccupied with basic survival - searching for
food and shelter. Another is that they often have
negative experiences with healthcare services.
The 2014 Impact100 WA Primary Grant was used to
run a pilot ‘Street Health’ project which put a nurse
practitioner on the ground, walking the streets
and engaging with the homeless and marginalised,
accompanied by an assertive outreach worker.
Between April and November 2015, the Street
Health team have had 250 patient encounters,
75 with patients not previously encountered.
These nurses provide:
services such as wound care, blood pressure
testing and basic check ups that either would
involve an expensive visit to the emergency
department or just wouldn’t happen
a pathway to the drop-in clinics where non-
judgmental doctors are available at no cost
to the patient
“Excellent wound care can be provided even on a
park bench”
SARAH RAVINE, STREET HEALTH NURSE
The Street Health Team deals with the full range
of health and social issues facing homeless
people and through this supports them into
securing stable, permanent housing, breaking
the cycle of homelessness.
The Street Health program won the 2015 national
HESTA Australian Nursing Award for Team
Innovation.

2015 GRANT WINNERS
EON FOUNDATION & KALPARRIN
TWO PRIMARY GRANT WINNERS IN 2015
In 2015, after a huge influx of new members,
Impact100 WA had $220,000 to give away.
This meant 2 x $100,000 game changing,
high impact Primary Grants. Programs will be
implemented across 2016/17.
EON FOUNDATION
– THRIVING COMMUNITIES PROGRAM
EON is a charitable foundation currently working
in 13 Kimberley and 3 Pilbara remote Indigenous
communities. EON uses a holistic approach to tackle
poor nutrition and lack of healthy food through
the creation of ‘edible gardens’ followed up with
fortnightly gardening, cooking, hygiene and health
classes. They also conduct community workshops for
parents and elders to improve family nutrition. EON
are using their grant to expand the program into the
remote Kimberley community of Yakanarra.
“I am writing on behalf of everyone at Yakanarra
Community School to express our sincere thanks
for your generous support of our school garden
through the EON Foundation... It will make an
enormous difference to the children, in particular,
when food security is such an issue here. It makes a
big difference too, to the community people who
want to try to give their families the best they can.”
YAKANARRA PRINCIPAL
KALPARRIN – STRONG YOUTH THROUGH
STRONG FAMILIES PROGRAM
Kalparrin provide practical and emotional
support for the families and carers of children
with special needs, regardless of degree of
severity or type of impairment. They believe
that strong families have a greater chance of
providing the best care for children with special
needs. Kalparrin are using their grant to run a
support program for 2 years that can empower
parents and equip them with the knowledge
and support networks they need to best care
for their child as well as offer respite to sibling
children. The component programs will be run
by 2 Murdoch University PHD Students and will
include: siblings therapeutic group sessions, a
Standing Strong Workshop for girls, Mother
and Daughters “girl talk workshops”, an older
sibling’s “bring a friend” event and a Perth Heat
(Baseball) day.
“We were over the moon to be recognised by the
members of Impact100 WA, the donation will make
a huge difference to the families Kalparrin serves
and we look forward to sharing with you the great
work we achieve through Impact100 WA’s support.”

reasons for becoming involved but they are all
proud to say they get back so much more than
they believed possible.
Here’s what they love about Impact100 WA:
“There’s something for everyone, whatever their
desired level of involvement”
“It’s great to spend time with like-minded people
who want to make a difference”
“I love how it makes powerful philanthropy
accessible to all”
“That it’s collaborative, working with a great bunch
of people”
“It’s such a great way to find out more about the
organisations that are out there doing such good
things and to be able to help them”
“I like that it opens the eyes of our members to the

“That it inspires those who can to go further with
their philanthropy”
“I love the energy in the room on the Grant Awards

BETTER CHANGE IN WA!
SCALING UP
For the first two years we focused on Disadvantaged
Youth, then we added Mental Health and last year
included Seniors in Need. In 2016 we are expanding to
mirror the US model of 5 focus areas.
As always we will be looking for applications that make a
significant and measurable difference to an underserved
cause or population but, from now on, they are able to
fall within one of the following FIVE focus areas:
Arts & Culture - Initiatives that cultivate, develop, and
enhance the cultural and artistic climate in WA.
Education - Initiatives that provide learning
opportunities or improve access to education for
children and/or adults in WA.
Environment - Initiatives that restore, preserve, revitalise
or enhance the natural or recreational surroundings of WA.
Health & Wellness - Initiatives that positively impact the
mental and/or physical well-being of people in WA.
Family & Community - Initiatives that strengthen and
enhance the lives of children and families in WA.
Surely there is something in there to ignite your passion!
If you aren’t already, become a member by logging on to
www.impact100wa.org.au and take your first step toward
becoming part of this force for change in WA.
THE FUTURE
JOIN US!
The small, Mandurah-sized town of Pensacola in
Florida, USA has its own Impact100 and two years
ago they hit 1000 members. This meant TEN grants
of $100,000 were given away to local not-for-profits.
That’s $1million going into their community each year,
making a difference across five different focus areas.
WE CAN DO THAT, TOO.
