Giving is American
Since our nation’s founding, Americans have upheld a powerful tradition: showing up for one another. Giving isn’t just an act of generosity — it’s a reflection of who we are as a country, grounded in compassion, service, and a belief in building stronger communities together.
As nonprofit leaders, staff, and board members, you see the impact of this tradition every day. Whether it’s through direct service, advocacy, or support behind the scenes, your work changes lives.
Share Your Nonprofit’s Story
We want to hear your perspective.
Have you witnessed a moment when your organization made a difference for someone in need? These stories embody the spirit of American giving and we’d like to help share them.
Other Ways to Get Involved:
Share on Social Media
