– About Give Local
“Give Local South Puget Sound is hosted by the Community Foundation of South Puget Sound to support nonprofits across Thurston, Mason, and Lewis Counties. Give Local 2018 will feature approximately 75 organizations that have been reviewed by the Community Foundation.

“From October 31 through November 20, donors are encouraged to “give where you live” by making an online donation to one or more local nonprofits on our online giving platform. Sign up for our email list below and we’ll send you more information about Give Local.”

“100% of the funds raised from Give Local are passed along to our nonprofit partners. This is possible because of the generous support of our sponsors who cover the transaction fees and marketing costs of the campaign.”
