The Giving Partner is your local resource connecting philanthropy and our community. As a centralized nonprofit directory for year-round exploration and giving, The Giving Partner is a trusted source for informed charitable decisions for donors, funders and other entities for philanthropic research. This searchable database contains over 700 profiles of 501(c)(3), or specific 501(c)(4), charitable organizations serving Sarasota, Manatee, Charlotte and DeSoto counties. Each profile reflects how nonprofit organizations are making a difference with their commitment to transparency, including core mission, programmatic results, leadership, financial health and more.

  • The Community Foundation of Sarasota County reviews each profile for completeness; however, we depend on our nonprofit partners for accuracy of the information. 
  • To be eligible for grants, the Giving Challenge and other opportunities, nonprofit organizations must maintain a profile with an Approved (Current) status, which signifies that the organization has provided the required content and key information was reviewed by our team (this is not a grade, rating or certification).
