Thank You for Donating During Roanoke Valley Gives

thank youThe support you showed the Roanoke Outside Foundation during Roanoke Valley Gives was amazing. Thank you!
 
During the 24-hour donation window, you gave $10,190. And thanks to your support, we earned an additional $1,250 prize for having the fourth highest donation total. In all, more than $366,000 was raised for 125 nonprofits in the Roanoke Region.
 
Here’s exactly what that money does when you make a contribution to the Roanoke Outside Foundation:

  • Develops our outdoor infrastructure. We’ve been involved with the development of the new Explore Park master plan and will be advocating for its implementation.
  • Supports new opportunities. We recently completed a feasibility study that identified four locations within the region for in-river kayak parks; over the next few months we’ll be exploring options on how to actually get a few of them built. 
  • Supports events like the Blue Ridge Marathon and Roanoke GO Fest.
  • Tells the story of the region to businesses such as Deschutes that can lead to investment and jobs.

You can support the outdoors year round by volunteering, through donations and by shopping using Roanoke Outside links for Amazon.com and linking your Kroger card (get details for these options). Thanks for your support!
