Nonprofit Resources

WE ARE PROUD TO PARTNER WITH THE NONPROFITS THAT SERVE OUR COMMUNITY.

The Community Foundation hosts Give Local because we believe in bringing people together in support of work that matters. Like you, we are invested in this community, and we recognize the vital role you play in making the South Sound a wonderful place to call home.

Give Local is more than a fundraiser.
It’s an opportunity to...

Connect with donors who care about your mission
Reach new supporters and volunteers
Share your missions across our region
Strengthen your network through new partnerships and peer connections
Build long-term capacity through shared momentum

Whether you’re joining us for the first time or have been with Give Local for years, we invite you to use the tools and resources below to help you meet your goals.

We’ll continue to share new materials as Give Local gets closer, so check back for updates!
