Community Partnerships Start with Your Nonprofit.
Start with a business, board member, existing supporter, or organization that already believes in your mission. Invite them to become a Community Partner and match supporter giving throughout the year.
Why would they become a Community Partner?
Because they already believe in your mission.
A Community Partner isn't simply writing another check or sponsoring another event. They're making an ongoing commitment to your mission—matching supporter giving and becoming part of your community throughout the year.
The Power of a Community Partner Match
Supporter Gives $25/month.
Your Community Partner adds $25/month.
$50/month supports your mission.
A Community Partner doesn't just extend your funding—they extend your community by introducing your mission to the people connected to their business.
How It Works
Built to complement—not to replace what you're already doing.
Start with One Relationship
Individuals, businesses, and nonprofits participate around a shared commitment to community well-being.
Introduce the partner to supporters
Your supporters give through The Giving Step mobile app and see their giving matched.
Keep the Relationship Moving
Your nonprofit and Community Partner remain connected through ongoing participation and support in the app.
Sponsorships connect a business to your nonprofit. Community Partners connect your nonprofit to their community—all year long.
