Impact Day is the time of year when the TC community comes together to make a positive difference in the world. Since its inception, the community raised more than $775,000, donated nearly 4,000 books to schools, wrote dozens of letters to legislators, and hundreds of volunteers have participated in Impact Day initiatives. Now in its third year, Impact Day has even more ways you can get involved.
