The Extraordinary Give is Lancaster’s community-wide celebration of generosity.
We are invested in bringing awareness to the community benefit organizations that make our community a vibrant place for us to live, work, and play. Community benefit organizations play a huge role in all our lives and as a Community Foundation, we are deeply dedicated to supporting the good work that they do. The aim of the Extraordinary Give program is to:
- Raise the level of knowledge about community benefit organizations in our county and highlight their positive impact on our well-being.
- Support the operating needs of community benefit organizations that serve Lancaster County through a Stretch Pool and prizes made possible by our presenting sponsors Rodgers & Associates and the High Foundation, and other community supporters.
- Grow the base of engaged donors in Lancaster – bringing new donors to our community benefit organizations.
- Spotlight the charitable trends in our community. Where are we giving? What are our community benefit organizations saying is vital and needed right now?
As an ONLINE fundraiser, Extra Give 2020 is the ideal way for the community to stay engaged in the current environment. We can utilize this online day of giving as an opportunity to:
- Raise awareness about local organizations
- Plug into a community of doers & givers
- Stay connected in a now isolated world
- Engage existing donors and reach new ones
- Enhance every dollar donated with the stretch pool
- Expand fundraising success with online and social media presence
- Support organizations immediate operating needs
- Engage your friends, family, staff, and supporters in new ways
