Impact Club donates more than $18,000

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — One Wilmington organization is donating more than $18,000 to a local charity of their choice.

Impact Club, a group created to turn small donations into something meaningful for the community, held its second event tonight.

Impact Club started with just three members in August and now has more than 180.

Every member brought $100 to the event Monday night and heard from three charities — Blue Ribbon Commission, the Carousel Center, and Oasis NC.

All members will vote for a winner. Once selected, the winning charity will receive all the donated money.

Impact Club’s next meeting will be early next year.
