INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 1, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- IMG (International Medical Group), an award-winning
global insurance benefits and assistance services company, is
excited to be accepting applications for its annual Leave Your Mark
Grant. In its eighth year, the Leave Your Mark initiative is
designed to invest in causes addressed by mission and social good
organizations around the world. Grant applications will be accepted
August 1-September 13, 2024.
IMG is excited to be granting funds to five winners — two
mission or social good organizations and three individuals
participating in a mission, volunteer, or service trip. The two
winning organizations will receive $3,500 each, and the three winning individuals
will receive $1,000 each.
To apply for IMG's Leave Your Mark Grant, applicants are asked
to submit a 500-word essay or 3-minute video that describes why
their mission or service trip is important, how they're working to
overcome current obstacles facing the world, and how this grant
will help support their global outreach efforts.
"Offering the Leave Your Mark Grant to those working to make a
global impact is an exciting opportunity that we look forward to
each year," said Amanda Winkle, IMG
Chief Operating Officer. "After seeing how all of last year's
winners were able to use their winnings for a wide range of social
good causes around the world, we are incredibly excited to be
extending the grant opportunity to organizations and
individuals again this year."
Village to Village, a 2023 winning organization, used their
winnings from the Leave Your Mark Grant to host a camp for 60 newly
arrived refugee children in the U.S. Helping Children Worldwide,
the second 2023 winning organization, used their winnings to host a
training conference for nearly 100 midwives in Sierra Leone to improve the quality of
services offered in maternal and newborn health.
The 2023 individual winners used their funds to support several
initiatives including childbirth education in Eswatini, access to
food and education for a village in India, physical and spiritual needs in
Guatemala, agriculture training in
Liberia, and child sponsorship and
school building in Oaxaca,
Mexico.
