Providing Critical Partnership Support in a Time of Need

We want to help nonprofits in Greater Cleveland quantify the devastating impact COVID-19 has had and will continue to have on our nonprofits and our community. The Char and Chuck Fowler Family Foundation is partnering with the following organizations to aid in our region’s recovery:

• Business Volunteers Unlimited
• Candid
• Cleveland Leadership Center
• GrantsPlus
• Greater Cleveland Volunteers
• Inspiring Service
• Philanthropy Ohio
• The Cleveland Foundation
• United Black Fund of Greater Cleveland

Together, we’ve launched a new tool to aid in this effort: WeCareForCLE.org.

What We’re Doing

WeCareForCLE.org is THE place for helping the Greater Cleveland nonprofit community assess, respond and recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. Social Venture Partners Cleveland and several community partners have come together to create a single modern website serving the entire Greater Cleveland metropolitan area. WeCareForCLE.org is designed to engage Northeast Ohio’s nonprofit sector in COVID-19 response and recovery that drives volunteers to where they are needed and connects donors and funders to the causes that matter most to them, and the community.

The platform is free to volunteers and nonprofits, underwritten by the nonprofit technology organization Inspiring Service and the partners shown below.

We Need Your Input

We encourage you to download and review the COVID-19 Assessment and Response System instructions (link to PDF doc) and then visit WeCareForCLE.org and tell us how COVID-19 has impacted your organization. You can provide as much or as little information as you wish, but the richer the data and the story, the better for you and our region. Please be as complete and accurate as you can in real time. We encourage you to come back to the site often and update any field as you learn more about the impact of this crisis on your organization. More than one person can add and update data and stories to the site, which allows the most knowledgeable person in each area to provide the most accurate information.
