Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis Inc
Indianapolis, IN · EIN 06-1774175. Reported 22 grants totalling $777,652 to 21 organizations across tax years 2020-2023, on Form 990 Schedule I.
Does this grantmaker accept applications?
Its tax return does not say, and we will not guess. Private foundations file Form 990-PF, which asks outright whether they fund only organizations they select themselves -- 78% say yes, and that one answer is what lets the rest of this site tell you which foundations are worth approaching. Grantmaking charities like this one file a regular Form 990 instead, and the IRS never puts the question to them. Anyone claiming to know the answer from the filing is inventing it.
Three things in the filing do bear on it:
- What kind of organization it is. For Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis Inc, the IRS classifies it as a public foundation -- a grantmaker that raises its money from many sources rather than from one donor (NTEE T30).
- How spread out its giving is. 21 distinct organizations, with 13% of the dollars going to the largest single recipient. That is genuinely spread out -- the mark of a funder making many independent decisions rather than underwriting one institution.
- How much its list changes. 0% of one year's grantees are funded again the next, across 3 year-to-year transitions. That is below the 57% median for grantmaking charities, and well below the 67% private foundations manage. A list that turns over this much is one a newcomer can realistically join.
How big are its grants?
The median reported grant is $16,750. Half of what it reported fell between $13,000 and $50,000; the smallest was $11,000 and the largest $100,000. If you are asking for materially more than the top of that range, you are asking the wrong organization.
Every organization it funded
This is the complete list from its filings, largest first. Recipients are grouped by the EIN the filer reported, not by name, so an organization that was typed differently in two years appears once rather than twice.

What the money was for
Taken verbatim from the purpose column of its filings, largest first. This is the closest thing to a statement of what it funds, in its own words.
- Neurohope of Indiana Inc
To purchase equipment for an adaptive fitness center to help individuals with spinal cord injuries, brain injuries or strokes find affordable solutions to their recovery. - 91 Place Inc
To fund the purchase of the flagship home, which houses 4 youth and 2 house mentors, for the Creating Permanency in Transitional Housing project. This opportunity creates equity, avoids a costly and disruptive move and eliminates the necessity of finding another suitable house on the market. - Neighborlink Indianapolis Foundation Inc
Increase their ability to provide no-cost home repairs for low-income seniors and individuals with disabilities who own their own home. - Family Promise of Hendricks County
Increase the impact of their PowerHouse project, an innovative community response preventing evictions and rehousing those who are homeless, while offering supportive services to ensure stability. - Unconditional Inc
The grant was used to fund The Bridge, a holistic housing assistance program for women who have transitioned out of sex work. The goal is to move these women closer to their long-term dreams and goals. Participants receive 50% of their rent sponsored for one year, along with being matched with wellness and career mentors, a monthly support/recovery group, four financial literacy classes and three career classes throughout the year. Funding allowed for the expansion and deepening of this program, including enrolling more women, providing more support for the mentors, and ultimately, giving women in our community the stability they need. - Kennedy King Memorial Initiative
Open a visitor's center to bring history to life and draw visitors from within the community and around the world to learn more about the speech given by Robert F. Kennedy on the day that Dr. King was assassinated.
What kind of organizations it funds
By each recipient's own IRS classification, for the 20 of 21 recipients we could match to a registered organization. These are assigned categories, not our guesses -- Schedule I reports the recipient's EIN, so this is a lookup rather than a name match.
Giving by year
| Tax year | Grants reported | Total | Median grant |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2020 | 6 | $218,152 | $17,038 |
| 2021 | 5 | $167,000 | $16,750 |
| 2022 | 5 | $152,000 | $13,000 |
| 2023 | 6 | $240,500 | $11,000 |
Tax years, not calendar years, and the most recent year is usually incomplete -- Form 990 arrives about a year after the year it covers, so a low final year means late paperwork rather than a grantmaker winding down.

Funders that support the same organizations
These grantmakers and private foundations gave to organizations this one also funded. Shared grantees are the strongest signal available that two funders have overlapping priorities -- and a funder already backing your peers is a far warmer prospect than one that merely lists your cause.
How to approach this grantmaker
- Look for a published programme first. Unlike most private foundations, organizations of this kind often do run open, deadlined grant cycles with written guidelines. Its own website is the authority on that; this page is the authority on who it has actually paid.
- Check you are its size. The median reported grant is $16,750 -- and because grants under $5,000 need not be reported, it very likely writes smaller cheques than this page can see.
- Check you are in its geography. Its giving concentrates in Indiana.
- Read the recipient list for organizations like yours. If nothing on it resembles your work, that is a real answer and a cheap one to get.
