FAIRHOPE, Ala. — Impact 100 Baldwin County, which calls itself “a community of women seeking to transform lives in Baldwin County by awarding high-impact grants to nonprofits in the areas of ‘arts, culture and recreation,’ ‘education,’ ‘environment and preservation,’ ‘family’ [and] ‘health and wellness,’” will hold an event at the James P. Nix Senior Center in Fairhope on April 26 at 5-6:30 p.m. New members will be joining the group, and its leadership will announce the size and number of its 2022 round of grants (to be awarded in the fall). Each Impact 100 Baldwin County member’s annual $1,000 contribution is pooled to produce large grants for the community. More than $4 million has been awarded since the organization’s founding in 2008. Its membership recruitment period concluded on March 31.
