GivingTuesday 2026: Amplify Love

This GivingTuesday, every gift to FAPS through Cumberland Community Foundation’s campaign is amplified by $550,000 in matching funds. That means more animals vaccinated, fed, fixed and safely home, right here in Cumberland County. And you don’t have to wait. Checks, IRA gifts, stock and donor advised fund grants can go to CCF today, and they still count.

​

From your IRA (70½ and older)
Ask your IRA administrator to send a Qualified Charitable Distribution directly to Cumberland Community Foundation (Tax ID 58-1406831).
