The spirit of giving is alive and well on Orcas Island! The 2025 Spring GiveOrcas Campaign kicks off today, May 6, and runs through Thursday, May 15. At GiveOrcas.org the entire community is invited to come together to support the nonprofit organizations that help all islanders thrive and make Orcas such a wonderful place.
More than just a fundraiser, GiveOrcas is a celebration of community. Every gift you make goes directly to local nonprofits, ensuring that vital programs in education, the arts, health and social services, economic development, environmental stewardship, and more continue to thrive. All 35 featured organizations were carefully vetted by the Community Grants Committee, a dedicated group of local volunteers who visit with each organization.
Every donation makes a difference—contributions of $10 or more are welcome and celebrated. Plus, please join in the fun on special “game days”:
-
Unique Donor Day (May 8): The more individual donors the better in this race among grantees to win up to a $1,000 boost.
- Spin the Wheel at the Farmers Market (Saturday, May 10): Swing by and spin the wheel for your chance to win fun prizes, treats, and more funding for GiveOrcas grantees!
-
FunDay Monday (May 12): Weekend donors are entered into a hat draw for a $250 bonus gift toward their chosen organization.
-
Ben Franklin Day (May 13): Organizations with the most $100+ donations can win additional funding!
Be sure to visit GiveOrcas.org to learn about each organization and show how much you care. Together, we build a vibrant, supportive community—one gift at a time. Thank you for standing with local nonprofits and showing what makes Orcas Island truly extraordinary.
Give Local with GiveOrcas!
