STRETCHING your donated dollars to support local non-profit organizations
By the Rice County Community Foundation
RICE COUNTY, Kan. — We’re excited to share that The Rice County Community Foundation (RCCF) is launching its second annual match week! Unite For Rice County Match Week is scheduled November 4 – November 8, 2024. Last year, Match Week proved to be a game-changer for our community and this year we anticipate more giving, growth and opportunities for our community!
Here’s why:
The Patterson Family Foundation has once again stepped up in a big way, generously providing another $70,000 in matching funds. That means every dollar you donate during this match week will have double the impact! Your support will help launch the missions of our non-profit organizations and fund holders to new heights, creating positive change and improving lives right here in Rice County.
What is Match Week?
In a nutshell, it’s a time of giving, when your dollars work their hardest to make a real difference. When you contribute to your choice of organizations and/or funds during our Unite For Rice County Match Week, your donation is increased through the matching fund grant through The Patterson Family Foundation. Your generosity packs more of a punch, ensuring that your community benefits even more from your kindness.
Every participating organization/fund receives 100% of the donations directed toward their cause. IN ADDITION, they receive a proportionate share of the available match dollars. This ensures that your donation goes where it’s needed most and multiplies your impact.
Let’s celebrate!
We invite you to join us at Brew 56 in Lyons for the second annual BIG Event on Tuesday, November 5, at 6 pm. At The BIG Event you will see first-hand how RCCF supports non-profit organizations across the county as we announce Community Fund Grant Awardees and kick off the biggest week of GIVING. Be among the first to give to the Unite For Rice County Match Week and witness the magic unfold!
If you’re unable to attend the BIG EVENT, you can contribute in person at the Rice County Community Foundation office from Monday, November 4, to Friday, November 8, 2024. Our office is open from 8 am to 5 pm, and our friendly team will be there to assist you. You can also donate online anytime!
If you’re a non-profit interested in establishing a fund or endowment, we welcome you to contact RCCF! We’re here to help you make a lasting impact in Rice County.
