757 Community Closet

757 Community Closet is an organization that provides free clothing & essentials to underserved communities. We also provide hygiene kits & brand new basic essentials such as t-shirts, socks, & undergarments to unhoused folks in the community. We set up at the Foodbank, a local church, & pop-ups in various cities. We also provide assistance to mothers through gently used baby items, diapers, clothing, & postpartum products.

Following our organization on Instagram (@757communitycloset) is very helpful! This keeps our community updated on events & donation needs. Donating hygiene products, diapers, wipes, & snacks is also very helpful.

ADS Mission Give Back Foundation

The ADS Mission Give Back Foundation was organized to give back to those who serve. We do that both by supporting other 501(c)(3) organizations who share in our mission and through our annual scholarship fund, which gives scholarships to children of fallen or injured in the line of duty military or first responders. We would use the $5,000 for our next scholarship recipient and would be honored to say it was funded by this program.

Participate in one of our fundraisers! We've hosted fundraisers at The Shack (with a silent auction, live band and plenty of crushes) and a super fun shuffleboard tournament. Check out our website or Facebook page for information about this year's fundraiser when it becomes available.

Alzheimer's Association Southeastern VA Chapter

The Alzheimer's Association leads the way to end Alzheimer's and all other dementia — by accelerating global research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support. $5,000 would help the Southeastern VA Chapter continue to provide free programs and services to those affected by Alzheimer's. Our services include educational programs, support groups, care consultations, 24/7 helpline, and more.

Spreading awareness for Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia is incredibly important. Please share our 24/7 helpline 800.272.3900 and our website alz.org with anyone you know who has been affected by Alzheimer's. You can follow our signature event, The Longest Day Southeastern VA, on Facebook.

American Foundation for Suicide Prevention Virginia Beach Out of the Darkness Walk

The Out of the Darkness Community Walk is a journey of remembrance, hope, and support. It unites our communities and provides an opportunity to acknowledge the ways in which suicide and mental health conditions have affected our lives and the lives of those we love and care about. The funds raised through walker donations and sponsorships are used in the Hampton Roads area for research, education and advocacy for suicide prevention, as well as support for those affected by suicide.

Spreading awareness through sharing social media posts, participating as a walker, volunteering for events, education on signs of suicide, and by checking in with friends and family.

Anchor Assistance Dogs

Anchor Assistance Dogs places service dogs with people and children with disabilities and facility dogs to serve many people as therapy animals. With $5,000, we could invest in another great dog to train for one of the many people and organizations waiting for a trained dog. It is costly for our organization to obtain and train dogs to work as service animals. It would be very helpful to our small organization. Every dollar counts.

HOW TO HELP NOW: Donate to our organization to allow us to fulfill our mission and place dogs with people in need. Spread the word about our services and need for donations and volunteer puppy raisers through your social media.

Angel's Hands at the Ranch (Winner 2017)

Organization rescues animals (horses, llamas, mini horses, goats, sheep) and works with girls rescued from human trafficking using the animals as animal and equine therapy. The funds would be so helpful in getting the girls continued help with education, jobs, therapy, feeding and housing the girls as well as feeding the animals. We are a 501c3 organization that relies solely on donations, mostly local.

HOW TO HELP NOW: Volunteer to plan and help with a fundraising dinner/silent auction or donate horse feed/hay/animal feed for the animals we rescue. Or donate sheets for single beds and bath towels for the girls.
