Every $1 makes a difference, because every gift helps someone in Rhode Island. Here are the ways to get behind the work.

However much time you have

Some people give once a year. Some give an hour a month. Some lend their name to a bill, or bring twenty colleagues to a build day. It all lands in the same place — Rhode Islanders who need something to go right this week.

Ways to Get Behind It

Volunteers working together at a community project

Volunteer

Open needs posted by Rhode Island nonprofits, filterable by interest, date, and how far you are willing to travel.

Find an opportunity

Advocate

Add your name to the policy changes behind the work — wages, housing, child care, and the systems that decide who gets a fair shot.

Lend your voice

Bring Your Workplace

Employee giving campaigns connect your team with causes shaping a stronger Rhode Island, and build culture and leadership along the way.

Give

A one-time gift or a few dollars a paycheck. Every dollar stays here, and every dollar helps a Rhode Islander facing a hard week.
