Our Impact
At Momentum for Impact, we measure our success by the meaningful, lasting change we help create for the nonprofits, foundations, and the communities we serve.

A Team Dedicated to Empowering Communities
Tera Wozniak Stortz, M.P.A. (she/her), with 16 years of nonprofit and academic experience, is a trusted ally in community building, grant writing, and program development. Her commitment to inclusivity and tangible outcomes ensures that her strategies align seamlessly with each organization’s mission. Tera’s work has empowered nonprofits to mobilize volunteers, strengthen community ties, and implement programs that deliver measurable impact.
Our team brings a wealth of experience and expertise to every project. Megan Smith Jovanovic, Esq. (she/they), with 14 years of experience, excels in strategic planning, fund development, and program design. Her background as a licensed attorney enriches her analytical approach, enabling her to advocate effectively and develop innovative solutions for complex challenges. Megan’s leadership has been instrumental in initiatives ranging from securing significant grant funding to designing capital campaigns and advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts.
Centering Equity and Inclusion
Our work prioritizes inclusivity, lifting up historically marginalized communities and championing equity. Megan and Tera have supported programs addressing gender diversity, racial equity, and accessibility for people of all abilities. For example, Megan recently completed a year-long role as interim co-executive director for a Black, Brown, and Queer-founded arts nonprofit, leading fundraising efforts for a $9M mixed-use facility designed with community input.
Tera’s expertise includes managing federal grants focused on creating employment opportunities for low-income communities of color and helping organizations build collective missions that unite diverse populations.
Sustainable Growth Through Collaboration
We believe in working with organizations, not just for them. Our approach is collaborative, fostering deep partnerships that help nonprofits achieve their goals. Whether it’s conducting strategic planning, supporting program development for children with differing abilities, or mobilizing community leaders, we ensure every project reflects the values and vision of those we serve.
Real-World Results
Our work consistently leads to tangible outcomes:
Supporting an immigrant services organization through strategic planning, board development, and internal restructuring to implement systemic change.
Conducting a community needs assessment to address health disparities in breast cancer grant making.
Developing and managing programs that bring together diverse populations to drive collective impact.
At Momentum for Impact, we don’t just consult—we partner, empower, and inspire. Our impact is rooted in helping nonprofits turn their missions into measurable, sustainable results that uplift their communities and advance equity.
