INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 4, 2025 /CNW/ -- 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 ninth 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 through September 12, 2025.
IMG will 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.
"Each year, we are inspired by the incredible work being done by the individuals and organizations that apply for the Leave Your Mark Grant," said Justin Poehler, IMG Chief Commercial Officer. "This grant opportunity allows us to support those who are making a tangible difference in communities around the world, and we're proud to continue this tradition for the ninth year."
Mission of Hope, a 2024 winning organization of the Leave Your Mark Grant, used the funds to support their nutrition program in Haiti and provided meals to 350 children for an entire year. GAIA Vaccine Foundation, the second 2024 winning organization, used the funds to provide free HIV testing to more than 1,000 expectant mothers in West Africa.
The 2024 individual winners used their funds to support several initiatives including farming education in Kenya, religious mission work along the Amazon River, and care for orphaned children with disabilities in Ukraine.
