Small Amounts,
Big Results.
Every Day
Even the smallest act of caring
will, like a drop of water,
ripple through the entire pond.

WELCOME TO GIVE A LITTLE
We are an independent, grassroots, nonprofit organization. Our mission is to provide monetary assistance to individuals and families in Yamhill County who are experiencing financial adversity or crisis as well as to alleviate hardship and enhance the quality of life of those on very limited budgets.
We have identified four areas of focus as described at the bottom of the page.
Since March, we have been making ongoing efforts to fund efforts related to the pandemic and to help people who have been seriously affected. Please see examples on this website and in our newsletters.
We believe in the following guiding principles:
♥ That modest amounts of money or assistance, provided at the right time, can make a critical difference in people’s lives.
♥ That we all have something to offer, and we all can give a little.
♥ That if everyone gives a little, amazing things can happen.
♥ That a caring community is possible and worthwhile.
Our pledge to donors
Because our Board of Directors and specific patrons cover fully the operating costs of the Foundation,

A Yamhill County Collaboration

Give a Little in the SchoolsOur goal is to remove barriers to learning while helping children retain a sense of dignity and safety in the schools.
During recent long periods of school closures, we have worked with school staff on outreach efforts and new initiatives. |
Give a Little to SeniorsWe are committed to helping
the low-income elderly in our community by funding emergency and critical needs as well as by providing opportunities to enhance the quality of everyday life. During COVID, we are working more than ever to reach individual, isolated seniors. |
Give a Little to Job Seekers
The difference between discouragement and employment can be as little as a $50 gas card, a $15 hair cut, a work license, or a pair of steel-toed boots.
