Community ImPACT
Narrowing Opportunity Gaps, Fostering Potential
Our Story
Community ImPACT Inc. was born from a deep-seated commitment to serve and uplift the residents of the Tri-Cities area (East Point, College Park, and Hapeville).
Stemming from the vision of Impact Church, which sought to create a relevant faith community dedicated to positive change, Community ImPACT was established as a separate non-profit entity to address pressing community needs. The “Tri-Cities: Expanded Community Outreach Feasibility Study” (2018) highlighted significant challenges in our community, including disparities in child well-being, housing instability, and unemployment, inspiring us to be proactive in offering quality outreach programming.
