||| FROM ED ANDREWS for ORCAS ISLAND COMMUNITY FOUNDATION |||
The 2022 Holiday GiveOrcas Campaign is here and bigger than ever! This year’s Campaign consists of 24 local proposals, totaling $233,850, an increase of over $100,000 from 2021.
We invite you to give $10 or more at GiveOrcas.org from December 1 – 15. Making meaningful donations to programs that you care about improves and strengthens the Orcas Island community. Be sure to invite your friends, family, and neighbors to make a gift to this year’s Campaign. Giving together, we all do better.
100% of your donations go to the programs you choose. OICF covers all administrative and credit card fees. We continue to be amazed and grateful for this community with so many warm hearts filled with generosity. As always, thank you for your ongoing support and enthusiasm. We appreciate you all!

Island Rides is one of the many wonderful organizations participating in this season’s Give Orcas Campaign. Your donation will help us keep our EVs on the road 7 days a week. We provide free rides to essential services for islanders who don’t drive or do not have transportation, 10am-3pm. Need a ride? Give us a call @ 360-672-2201. We are driven by volunteers and powered by electricity. Thanks for your support!
