The Ripley County Community Foundation established Day of Giving in 2015 to give local residents the opportunity to support the place they call home. Day of Giving encourages Ripley County to support their favorite cause or fund. Stay tuned for more information!
In past years, the Community Foundation’s Board of Directors approved matching funds when donations into an endowed fund were eligible to receive a $1:$2 match on a first come, first served basis. Additionally, donors had the opportunity to support their favorite charitable organization when they donated an item to a supply drive that benefited and supported a local nonprofit organization. Each individual who donated an item to the supply drive was entered into a $500-$1,000 drawing to be awarded to a qualified charity of their choice. Organizations previously supported: Project T3, Ripley County Humane Society, Weekend Back-Sack Program, and Ripley County Food Pantries.
