Bayou Community Foundation (BCF) invites you to “Give Where You Live” on Tuesday, April 30 with BayouGives, our new community giving day just for our Bayou Region! 

BayouGives is a 24-hour online giving event benefitting 68 nonprofits working right here in Terrebonne, Lafourche and Grand Isle to help our neighbors in need and make our community stronger.  

From midnight to midnight on Tuesday, April 30, area residents are encouraged to go online to BayouGives.org and make a gift of $10 or more to one or more of the 68 participating Bayou Region nonprofits.

Donors may also give by cash or check directly to a participating nonprofit on April 30. All online and check/cash gifts will be counted toward each nonprofitBayouGives total, making them also eligible for cash prizes to enhance their gift total on the giving day.

This year’s BayouGives fundraising goal is $100,000, and every dollar raised stays right here and will be put to work in our community.

Our Bayou Region is like no other community in the country, and we deserve a special giving day to benefit our own hardworking local nonprofits. BayouGives is OUR day!” explains BCF President Stephen Peltier.
