BECOME A G3 MEMBER
Members of Girls Giving Grants are girls in grades 8-12 who have an interest in making a difference and learning all about the community and philanthropy. They come from all over Central Texas and meet together, every other week for the school year, to make a gift of one collective grant to a youth serving nonprofit. Learn more about past g3 grant recipients here.

Enrollment for the 2023-2024 class closed on Friday, September 15, 2023.
MEMBERSHIP FEE
The g3 membership contribution is $125 ($100 directly to the grant and $25 for g3 program materials and administration). Members pool their contributions to create a meaningful annual grant that goes to a local nonprofit chosen by g3.
Scholarships and sponsorships are available for eligible participants for whom the full $125 contribution would be a hardship.
Contact us at g3@impactaustin.org for more information about membership and scholarship/sponsorship opportunities.
TIME COMMITMENT
g3 participants commit to participate September through April, when the grant to benefit a local nonprofit is voted on and announced. The group meets approximately 10 times throughout the school year on Sunday afternoons, from 3 to 5 PM. We do not meet in March.
Through participation in g3, members may be eligible to earn up to 20 hours of community service credit (check with your school for credit acceptance).
G3 LEADERS SPEAK OUT
Each class of Girls Giving Grants is a diverse group of 60-90 young women from about 20 Austin-area schools.
Members graduate with new perspectives on community service, philanthropy, and how they will make a difference.
g3 provides a space for girls of various ages, perspectives, and backgrounds to unite in pursuit of a better world. By working as a collective, we are empowered to make a larger and more informed impact on our community.
Ava Motes, 2021 g3 President
Girls Giving Grants brings many ages and communities together to make a significant impact in Central Texas. G3 demonstrates that everyone is capable of making a positive impact on the community.
Vera Powell, 2022 g3 President
Membership in g3 has made me aware of the range of needs in the community, from beds for foster kids to therapy sessions for survivors of trauma. This understanding built me into someone that genuinely cares about helping others in the community.
