Many of you who know me know that over 20 years ago I helped teach a life changing self-defense course called IMPACT in Los Angeles. I was introduced to this organization by my future wife, Heather, who also became an instructor. I personally witnessed the way this program transformed the lives of the women who took the course and helped them discover their inner power. IMPACT continues this work here in the Bay Area along with many chapters across the country. Although I have not been in a padded suit getting kicked around for a couple decades, I still believe that this program needs to be brought to as many communities as possible. Please support this amazing organization by making a donation today
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.
- $650 could sponsor a full scholarship for a full 24-hour Basics course
- $300 could sponsor a full scholarship for a Teen course
- $100 provides a partial scholarship for a student in a Teen, Young Adult or Basics Course
Every donation helps bring personal safety, self-defense and empowerment training to people who need it. IMPACT Bay Area is a 501(c)3 non-profit, so your contribution is fully tax-deductible.
Jonathan is the Chief Operating Officer of JFCS East Bay, a nonprofit family services organization. He was an IMPACT Los Angeles padded instructor back in the mid-90s.
