Greater DC Cares
Greater DC Cares is the leading coordinator of volunteering and business philanthropy in the Washington region. They are a network of thousands of volunteers and hundreds of nonprofits and businesses working together to make DC the best place to live and work. They provide grants to nonprofit organizations to help build their capacity. Their grants are in the form of community assets other than dollars.

Greater DC Cares connects them with grantmakers’ dollars for even greater effect.
