The Giving Depot shows what local nonprofits need

Many organizations are facing uncertainty as discussion and decisions continue to affect funding sources.

Your clients might be asking for guidance on how their giving can help local nonprofits.

At the Sioux Falls Area Community Foundation, we know local nonprofits still need support and have a variety of causes your clients might find important. You can find those on The Giving Depot, where local nonprofits share their most pressing needs, on our website.

It’s always a good time to give – and we encourage people to browse through the projects to find a cause meaningful to them.
