Almost $200,000 reached so far.
You can still donate to your favorite Nonprofits (and don't forget your favorite Community Foundation)

If you want to be a true professional, you will do something outside yourself, something to repair tears in your community, something to make life a little better for people less fortunate than you. That’s what I think a meaningful life is – living for one’s community.
– Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Our community is pretty amazing. Even in an economy where many are struggling at the moment, our donors are stepping up and supporting local area nonprofits. You have given almost $200,000 already to nonprofits participating in Give Grandly this year, and we are all extremely grateful. Almost all the participating organizations have met their $500 match. But we are not done yet! There are still a few days left in the campaign.

For those who have not yet donated, you can still do so online until midnight on Wednesday, 18 May (use the nifty button below!).

We are extending in-person donations to the end of the week (Friday 20th), so if you'd like to mail donations, using the donation form on the website, please do so! Anything with a Friday postmark will be honored. Mail a single check made out to GCCF, with the donation form (download it here) indicating which nonprofits you wish to support and for how much, to Grant County Community Foundation, PO Box 1767, Silver City, NM 88062.

Again, many many thanks to all of you who have given so generously this year, this campaign. The money collected during Give Grandly provides local area nonprofits with the funds they need to keep the lights on, help pay staff, and generally support the day-to-day invisible work they do that makes it possible for them to accomplish their wonderful missions.
DONATE NOW (until Wed., May 18, 2022)

 Thank you for all you do to make our community a better place!
