StrikeForce 421 and its community of pledge partners gave away $155,000 during their Gather and Give It All Away celebration event on March 18 via Zoom.

Strike Force 421 is a Giving Circle headed by women of faith. Comprised of a group of people who give to a pooled fund and decide together where to give, giving circles allow members to learn more about giving and have greater impact on causes they care about.

“We had so much fun seeing everyone that joined, hearing from our previous grantees, and announcing this year’s grant recipients,” said JoAnne Daudt, StrikeForce 421 founder. “This was our first year ever being able to fully fund all five grant finalists! What a testament to the power of the women of our community coming together to make a serious impact in these worthy ministries.”
