||| FROM LYNN WHITE for ORCAS ISLAND COMMUNITY FOUNDATION |||
Orcas Island, this is our moment – let’s finish strong and make a lasting impact together! We are more than halfway through the GiveOrcas campaign and our community has already shown incredible generosity – but there is still more we can accomplish together!
Giving helps build strong community connections. When you support a local nonprofit through GiveOrcas, you’re not just helping fund vital programs – you’re creating deeper ties across our island and investing in a happier, healthier community for everyone.
There is still time to make a difference! Visit GiveOrcas.org to explore the online catalog of 35 inspiring, and carefully vetted projects. Every gift, big or small, goes directly to programs in education, health and social services, the arts, environmental stewardship, youth activities, and
more.
Get ready for Ben Franklin Day, this Wednesday, May 13: Organizations with the most $100+ donations will receive bonus funds from OICF!
Your support today has real impact and adds to the joy and strength of our entire island community. Let’s finish strong and show what is possible when we give together! Visit GiveOrcas.org to make your gift.
Please join us for our annual ice-cream social to celebrate collective giving at the GiveOrcas Community Celebration and Youth Philanthropy Awards on Thursday, May 22, 3 – 5pm at Emmanuel Parish Hall & Labyrinth.
