Annual Meeting celebrates all we've accomplished in the past year and anticipates what we'll do together in the year ahead. Impact Austin's Annual Meeting went virtual in 2020 and 2021 due to the global pandemic. Read the highlights from 2021! We were delighted to return to an in-person celebration for 2022 as we surpassed $8 million in total grantmaking.
