Nonprofit Registration Opens: Fall 2026 (dates coming soon)

Giving Season: December 1 – 31, 2026

Since 2014, Give Back Tahoe has connected our community’s generosity with the nonprofits doing essential work across Tahoe-Truckee. Last year, 574 donors gave more than $1.2 million to support 86 local organizations. This fall, nonprofits can register for the 2026 campaign, and TTCF provides the marketing support, educational resources, and technical assistance to help every organization make the most of Giving Season, free of charge.

Housing markets are constantly evolving. Since 2016, TTCF has regularly facilitated regional housing needs assessments to ensure local housing partners have the most accurate data possible to identify and address needs and develop solutions. This data has helped accelerate achievable local housing solutions by launching programs and social enterprises, and supporting our partner agencies in developing localized solutions.

Together, our community achieved something truly remarkable! Last year’s Give Back Tahoe campaign marked a historic moment, bringing neighbors, nonprofits, and supporters together to generate the highest collective giving the campaign has ever seen.

What matters to the community matters to us. The needs of the community are constantly evolving, and this is true for the nonprofits that serve this region. This year, TTCF has reimagined how we fund local nonprofits to better meet today’s challenges. Our approach to working alongside our nonprofits is rooted in trust-based relationships that reduce barriers for nonprofits, foster equity, and build long-term resilience.

For 2025, we eliminated competition in our community grantmaking and delivered $485,000 in unrestricted, mission-driven grants to 60 local nonprofits. No grant application, a lower administrative burden, and more impact.

Often, when it comes to our community’s toughest challenges and potential solutions, we hear the term “it doesn’t pencil.” 

That is where philanthropy plays a role. By securing flexible, nimble funds from our donors, TTCF structures new ways to realize solutions. Our grantmaking and impact investing can be catalytic and regenerative when we take early-stage risk or inspire other funding.

TTCF has a legacy of projects that support a spectrum of these solutions, including Our Impact Portfolio, which focuses on our people and place.
