The Kitsap Great Give What is the Kitsap Great Give? The Kitsap Great Give is an annual day of giving during which anyone anywhere can go to www.kitsapgreatgive.org and donate as much as they want to as many registered nonprofits as they want in a single transaction. All the nonprofits registered are 501(c)(3) charities based in or serving Kitsap or Mason counties and it is totally free for the nonprofits to participate. In 2019, we embark upon the sixth annual Kitsap Great Give! Each year has been a record-breaker and last year, nearly 4,000 donors raised $1.4 million dollars for nonprofits based in or serving Kitsap and/ or North Mason Counties. Those dollars changed lives of our community members and since last year, nonprofits participating in the Kitsap Great Give have touched the lives of community members in a positive way over 1 million times. You are the key to investing in our community and giving this amazing gift to our local nonprofits! You and the thousands of other residents on the Kitsap Peninsula can go to www.kitsapgreatgive. org on April 23, and change lives in your community. The minimum donation is $10, and when thousands of people give $10, it adds up to some pretty big numbers.

Why should I bother to donate online on April 23? There are over 300,000 reasons to take part on April 23. Those 300,000+ reasons are the residents of Kitsap and North Mason County! The nonprofits in our counties touch the lives of every resident in one way or another. Even if you don’t know they exist, or don’t use them, those organizations are working to make life better for all our residents in ways you might not expect. Many people don’t realize just how many nonprofits there are in Kitsap and North Mason, or the impact that they make in our community. This year we have 324 nonprofits participating. Those organizations are all charitable organizations – they don’t make a profit – they exist to serve others. They

feed the hungry, house the homeless, help victims of sexual assault, help children learn music and sports, help animals find homes, provide school supplies for kids, honor veterans, preserve public lands, support parks, teach kids leadership, and much more! This is your chance to join in, change the lives of your fellow community members, and share your resources with the causes that matter most to you. You can research those nonprofits at www. kitsapgreatgive.org.

So how exactly does it work?

One of the most exciting reasons to give on April 23 is that, unlike any other day of the year, if you donate to nonprofits via the Kitsap Great Give, our sponsors will add money to your donation! This year, our sponsors have provided $197,500 for us to give to nonprofits on top of your donation! For instance, if you donate $100 to a nonprofit through www.kitsapgreatgive.org

It’s pretty simple. From 12:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. on April 23, you can go to www. kitsapgreatgive.org, research registered nonprofits you are interested in, and donate to as many registered nonprofits as you want in a single transaction. That’s it! The minimum donation is $10, there is no maximum, all your donations can be tax deductible, and you can choose to cover the

In fact, YOU can even donate to the Bonus Bucks on April 23, and your donation will be split among all the nonprofits! Just go to www.kitsapgreatgive. org, and choose “Bonus Pool” from the Leaderboard dropdown menu.

credit card processing fees if you want to. If you are nervous you’ll forget or won’t have time on April 23, then you can donate right now! That’s right, once again, we have Early Giving and you can participate! If you are nervous about donating online, you can fill out the donation form now, we’ll process your donation right away, and your donation will show on the leaderboard on April 23! All the descriptions of the registered nonprofits are already online at www.kitsapgreatgive.org and you can read all about them now, if you like. We’ll keep a running total in real-time of the total amount raised so far; so you can check in throughout the day and check on how your favorite nonprofits are doing. Communities are stronger when we stick together, so join in the day of giving and help change lives in your community. See you on April 23!

Grants & Scholarships

The Kitsap Community Foundation, in partnership with our Presenting Partner, the United Way of Kitsap County, is pleased to produce the Kitsap Great Give. We don’t make any money off of hosting it, it’s just one of the things the Foundation does to meet our mission – connecting people who care with causes that matter.

Kitsap Community Foundation is YOUR community foundation. Our purpose is to improve our community by working to improve the nonprofits in our community, working to increase philanthropy in our community, and providing leadership in our nonprofit sector. We started making grants to nonprofits in 1999. Since that time, the Foundation has distributed more than $8,000,000 in grants, contributions, and scholarships.

Kitsap Strong will create longterm beneficial change in our community. You can find out more at www.kitsapstrong.org.

Growing Your Endowment How do we make all of this happen?

Your endowment is now at about $12 million and growing!

Disclosure: The prize(s) that may be awarded to the eligible winner(s) are not transferable, redeemable for cash (where applicable), or exchangeable for any other prize. All prizes are subject to verification following the event. By participating in the Event, participants agree to be bound by the decisions of Foundation personnel. Persons who violate any rule, gain an unfair advantage in participating in the Event, or obtain winner status using fraudulent means will be disqualified. If the conduct or outcome of the Event is affected by human error, any mechanical malfunctions or failures of any kind, intentional interference or any event beyond the control of the Foundation, the Foundation reserves the right to terminate this Event or make such other decisions regarding the outcome as the Foundation deems appropriate. All decisions will be made by the Foundation and are final. The Foundation may waive any of these rules in its sole discretion. *Offline donations DO NOT COUNT towards Early Bird or Power 90 Prize. All participating nonprofits are eligible for Early Bird and Power 90 prizes. Appearance on BKAT is not a requirement. **A “unique donor” is defined as an individual PERSON donating to a nonprofit. The prize is not for unique donations. A donation is a transaction. We are measuring the actual donors, NOT the number of transactions. For example: - An individual donating to a single nonprofit with multiple credit cards still counts as only one unique donor. - An individual donating to a single nonprofit with one credit card and many transactions still counts as only one unique donor. - An individual donating to three different nonprofits counts as a single donor to *each* of the nonprofits they donate to. ***Prize money is not used to calculate bonus pool amounts, prizes are tacked on to your total at the end, after bonus has been calculated. Please call 360.698.3622 with any questions.

United Angels is an all volunteer, all donation based organization that was founded to provide resources and assist with funding treatment of emergency and critical medical situations. It's in those situations, that without funds for immediate vet care, the only choices to relieve your pets suffering would be euthanasia or surrendering for care. Neither of which is an optimum choice. United Angels knows we can’t fund all the emergencies or the critical treatments needed, but we will provide what we can to save the lives of Companion animals. We know the need for our assistance far outweighs our resources... We have no income or living circumstances requirements for our help... We help all animals if there’s a need.

Mission

Early Life Speech & Language provides intensive speech therapy for children ages 2-7 struggling with speech delays, at no cost to families.

Vision

All Washington children will have the verbal communication skills needed for success at home, in school and in life.

We are officially open in Bremerton and couldn’t be more excited! The funds we raise here through the Great Give, will go to supporting our clinic and funding our Speech Language Pathologist to work with the kids and families who need our services. Not only do we provide intensive speech therapy for kids ages 2-7, we offer free parenting classes for our kids parents so they can carry over what the child learns at Early Life Speech & Language into the home. We are currently serving over 250 children and plan to increase that to 300 by year end. By opening our Bremerton clinic, we are able to increase those numbers along with our clinics in Seattle, Spokane and Walla Walla.
