Aside from the epic, fast-paced professional wrestling action and the most diversely talented roster of stars and Knockouts, IMPACT Wrestling continues to expand its reach and support to charities and non-profit organizations around the world, particularly in cities across the United States where IMPACT held its shows. One case in point is its early February shows inside Sam's Town Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada where IMPACT partnered with ten different charities in Las Vegas and Southern Nevada.

About fifty Girl Scouts were able to attend one of the Las Vegas shows thanks to the Girl Scouts of Southern Nevada which has been partnering with IMPACT for many years. IMPACT's strong partnership with local charities continues to flourish during its recently concluded A-Town Beatdown shows held last March 6th and 7th in Atlanta, Georgia which included the Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Metro Atlanta. "IMPACT Wrestling gives the girls a sense of courage and confidence to think about trying something new, when they are able to see a woman wrestler as role model for them," said Axa F. Aguilar, Manager of Special Programs for the Girl Scouts of Southern Nevada.

In conjunction with its Las Vegas shows, IMPACT Wrestling also partnered with the NFL Alumni Association's charity arm Leaders In Training as well as the Boys and Girls Clubs of Southern Nevada and Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Southern Nevada among other local charities within the state. In fact, one of the Big Brothers and Sisters attending the Vegas shows - Little Brother Kharee - served as a special Bell Ringer in one of the matches and was even given a standing ovation when he was introduced to the crowd. On the other hand, IMPACT Wrestling built a strong relationship with the US Military through its partnership with the Veteran Ticket Foundation. IMPACT has welcomed members of the military to its shows including three in Las Vegas last February. Vet Tix works with currently serving military members plus honorably discharged veterans from all branches of service and families of those who are killed in action. Over the past few months, IMPACT also held a toy drive and even a multi-day food drive at its shows.

Through the years, IMPACT has partnered with many charities and non-profit organizations including Make-A-Wish Foundation, YMCA, The SCORE Program, Best Buddies International, Chiari Malformation Research Foundation, American Cancer Society, Starlight Children's Foundation and the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Central Florida among others. IMPACT will continue to reach out and support with local charities and non-profit organizations as it is set to stage its upcoming shows on April in Tampa, Florida for Total Nonstop Action: There's No Place Like Home and Columbus, Ohio for Battle At The Buckeye State.
