Community Gives It Forward Through giveGreater.org®

More nonprofits added profiles to giveGreater.org® in 2011, bringing the number of profiles to 165. During the Fall “I Give It Forward” campaign, over a quarter of a million dollars, including matching grants made by The Community Foundation, was awarded. Two thousand giving cards were distributed. Donors and those to whom they “gave it forward” chose a local nonprofit to receive a grant for the value of their card.
