Richland Gives
What is #RichlandGives?
It is the local online giving event. It is designed to encourage everyone to contribute to local nonprofits they care about through a single giving platform/website. The Foundation hosts Richland Gives to build capacity, grow philanthropy and make the community stronger. It coincides with the international day of giving, #GivingTuesday.
The #RichlandGives website is available to accept your gifts year-round.
The Need

Benefits to Nonprofits
- Get in front of more supporters. Richland Gives search function will help nonprofits of all sizes reach thousands of new potential donors.
- Reduce fundraising costs. Raising $1 online costs 7 cents, as opposed to 20 cents for grant writing or up to $1.25 to acquire new donors through direct mail.
- Increase giving. Fun and compelling campaigns will engage new givers and inspire current givers to donate even more.
Benefits to Donors
- Find, learn about and contribute to local programs that support the causes in which they believe.
- Make online donations quickly and easily to Richland County registered 501(c) 3 by credit or debit card.
