About Give Local 757

The Peninsula Community Foundation's goal is to work with its community partners to identify areas where new strengths can be built and greater civic engagement is encouraged - philanthropy is one of these areas.

The Give Local 757 Initiative is a program created by the Peninsula Community Foundation to spark and grow local philanthropy. One way we are accomplishing this is through the region's annual 24-hour giving day held the second Tuesday in May. The event has united our community like no other to help raise unrestricted funds for the organizations that strengthen the Hampton Roads region.

Since its inception, the giving day has generated $9 million from more than 80,000 donors for hundreds of local nonprofits!
