At the heart of Richmond, something incredible is happening. Our community is coming together to continue strengthening our unique and invaluable program, Tools For Change. With your help, we've already achieved a remarkable milestone in our Annual Fund Campaign, raising $8,686 from 135 generous donors.

But we're not stopping here! We have $6,313 left to reach our goal of $15,000 by December 31st, 2023, and we're confident that together, we can make it happen.

Tools For Change Program: A Richmond Gem

The Tools For Change Program is not just another charity initiative; it's a one-of-a-kind resource that sets Richmond apart. This program empowers local nonprofits by providing access to a 10,000-square-foot tool-lending warehouse, offering a vast array of equipment for their upcoming projects or events. But it doesn't stop there. What truly makes this program exceptional is the expertise and support our dedicated team provides.

The Power of Collaboration

Our team works closely, one-on-one, with member agencies to ensure they have the right tools for the right project. We believe that when organizations have the right resources, they can accomplish incredible things. And that's where you come in. Your contributions are not just donations; they are investments in the betterment of our community.

Multiplying Impact: Every Dollar Counts

Here's something truly remarkable: every dollar you donate to our Annual Fund Campaign is multiplied by 33, thanks to our 3% rental fee. This means that when we hit our $15,000 goal, it translates to an astounding $495,000 worth of support for our member agencies. Your generosity has a ripple effect that transforms lives and strengthens our community in ways we can hardly measure.
