Richland Gives offers grant prize incentives
This is the seventh year the Richland County Foundation will host Richland Gives. Since its inception in 2015, Richland Gives has raised $1,435,869. This year the Foundation will offer $100,000 in grant prize incentives to registered Richland County charities.
Richland Gives is designed to encourage people to contribute to local nonprofits they care about through a single giving website. The foundation conducts the day to build capacity, grow philanthropy and make the community stronger. It allows local organizations to raise funds and awareness as well as cultivate new donors and reinvigorate lapsed donors.
Individuals will be able to donate money to nonprofits from November 15 at 7 a.m. through November 30 at 7 p.m. All donations are tax deductible and donors will receive a record of their giving.
The Foundation will provide toolkits, webinars, outreach support, mass media and social media coverage to make it easy for all nonprofits to participate. Each participating organization will have an individualized web page to promote their cause.
“Richland Gives’ success will depend on our collective enthusiasm and implementation. We are asking nonprofit professionals, volunteers, businesses, and citizens to bring their skills and experiences to this effort,” said Richland County Foundation President Brady Groves.
