How It Works

Circle of Giving, September 11-18, 2023 holds incredible opportunity for nonprofit agencies with funds at the Blue Rapids Community Foundation.

On that day, BRCF will match donations made to participating funds.

Thank you to The Patterson Family Foundation for up to  $70,000 in matching funds for the BRCF. 

The Patterson Family Foundation will award up to $70,000 to BRCF for dollar per dollar raised during match days, with up to $35,000 saved for upcoming community enrichment project opportunities and up to $35,000 in which will be matched 50 cents per dollar                                                     up to $3500 per each organization.

Here's how it works:

  • Gifts can be made by cash, check, or online using a credit card. Cash and check gifts can mailed to 312 Alcove Drive, Blue Rapids, KS  66411 and postmarked between September 11 - Septemer 18, 2023, or dropped off at the Community Center on September 18.  When donating by check, one check must be made payable to Blue Rapids Community Foundation. A separate form will be used to indicate which nonprofit(s) will benefit.
     
  • Online gifts can be made between Sept 11-18, 2023 on this website.  During that time the homepage will change to the giving form where you may indicate which organizations you would like to benefit.
     
  • Donors can come to the LIVE EVENT and make a donation:

  • The money earned by each non-profit group is an outright grant and may be used as they wish. Some may choose to establish their endowment or they may choose to use it for day-to-day operating expenses.
