Will you support our efforts to make empowerment and safety accessible to everyone? 

Please donate today to help us keep our public programs Pay-What-You-Can!

One thing that has remained constant over the years as IMPACT has grown and evolved is YOU, our community. Your support is the superpower behind all the programs we have held and the lives we have touched. Most recently, we added emerging from a global pandemic with greater commitment and clarity of purpose to the list of the incredible things WE have done together.

In July, we made our programs pay-what-you-can to offer greater accessibility and choice. While IMPACT has always offered scholarships, we feel that giving students the choice of how much to pay is more empowering and less burdensome. 

With your help, we can continue this initiative to make empowerment and safety accessible to everyone in our community - even as we continue to rebuild from the effects of the pandemic.

We appreciate your generosity at any level!

IMPACT Bay Area believes that personal safety is a right, not a privilege. Our mission is to reduce violence and promote healing by teaching effective boundary setting, personal safety, and physical self-defense skills.
