What is the deadline to apply for participation in the 2018 event?
APPLICATIONS FOR 2019 WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR REVIEW THROUGH December 31, 2018. ONLY EXISTING PARTICIPANT PAGE UPDATES ACCEPTED CURRENTLY. THANK YOU. Requests for participation in the 2019 event must be received by 5pm on December 31st, 2018 to be considered. Inquiries should be sent to cfwc@westpa.net
When will I know how much my organization receives?
We plan to have the results distributed within one week of the event.
When will I receive the donations?
Organizations will receive their check for donations plus the prorated match amount at the Post-Event Check Ceremony in June – date to be announced.
Will I know who made a gift to my organization?
All donor contact and gift information received during Warren Gives will be sent to the respective organizations after the final numbers are calculated and checks are distributed, unless the donor selects the option to remain anonymous, in which case the organization will receive information on the amount but not the donor.
Why am I not listed as a participating charitable organization?
To participate in Warren Gives a charitable organization must primarily serve Warren County, and have received a CFWC grant* in the last 3 years. Questions regarding eligibility can be sent to cfwc@westpa.net. Requests for participation in the 2019 event must be received by 5pm on December 31, 2018 to be considered.
*CFWC grants do not include grants from Donor Advised Funds. While CFWC manages accounts for various funds and issues checks on their behalf, Donor Advised Fund grants are not grants from CFWC.
Are there rules beyond meeting eligibility requirements organizations must follow?
Eligible organizations must also have a current profile page created on this website by April 1, 2019, promote their organizations participation in Warren Gives to the best of their ability, and organizations may not donate to themselves.
My organization’s profile information is incorrect. How can I correct it?
Go to “For Organizations” and select the “Update Page” choice – complete the form and submit. Your page will typically be updated within 72 hours.
How does the prorating match work?
The Community Foundation of Warren County will enhance each donor’s gift by providing a prorated match to each gift made to each charitable organization, i.e., if a gift from a single donor, to your organization, exceeds $1,000, the amount above $1,000 will NOT be match eligible. The CFWC will divide a total match pool among the participating charitable organizations.
