Any philanthropic group can post a Free Listing in our Directory of Services & Organizations. It is not necessary to be a 501(c) 3. There is a question that asks if you are a tax exempt nonprofit and a group can answer either “yes” or “no”. Just click on “Submit a Listing” at this link:
http://communitycause.org/directory/
Answer whichever questions you wish. Just know that the more specific you are, the more the community volunteers helping with CommunityCause.org will be able to help. We only help promote the information that you post on the CommunityCause.org website. Please copy & paste your donated item needs and your volunteer needs in the listing so that people can find what you need when they do an advanced search.
Hint: It is best to write your answers in a word document first just in case you click a wrong button and your information goes to cyberheaven and is lost.
