Gallatin Valley Newcomers Club Supports Local Nonprofits

Annual Fundraiser

GVNC members annually raise funds to support local nonprofits, in recognition of the critical services they provide to our community.  Applications are solicited and our membership votes on the organization(s) to receive the funds raised in that year.  In the last 10 years, we have raised and donated over $215,000 through our annual fundraising events.

General information about our Fundraising process:

Each year, applications are received and the membership votes to select which organization will receive the funds raised. The organization receiving the most votes from our membership will receive the proceeds of our fall fundraiser.

GVNC’s 2024 Fundraising to Benefit Family Promise of Gallatin Valley

The Gallatin Valley Newcomers Club, a social and charitable organization, annually undertakes a fundraising campaign with proceeds benefiting a local nonprofit chosen by a vote of the membership. This year we raised funds for Family Promise of Gallatin Valley for their kitchen/meeting space renovation project in their Emergency Shelter location.

Raffle Ticket sales kicked off at the September 5th Newcomers Club social event and winners were drawn at the November 7th luncheon.  Our goal was to raise $30,000 – while the results are not finalized, we are on track to exceed this goal!  You can still donate money here.  

Many thanks to everyone who donated online and/or bought raffle tickets.  Together, we are making such a difference for Family Promise!

The Gallatin Valley Newcomers Club is also a strong supporter of the Gallatin Valley Food Bank.  Members generously contribute food and money to the Food Bank at our monthly coffees and luncheons.
