The Local Insider’s Causes page is all about you and the issues you care about. Know someone who needs a transplant? A charity with a great mission? A nonprofit doing big things and with a story to tell? A family that needs help? This is the place.
We’re grateful to United Way Rhode Island for helping to make this community resource possible. This organization has such a broad view of building a stronger Rhode Island by supporting those in need. Nonprofits across the Ocean State will tell you all about the impact the organization has had through its annual 401Gives efforts. Thousands of people can share stories about how they were connected to food, housing, and other resources through 211.
This is an open forum for efforts that help our friends and neighbors, no political affiliation, no ulterior motives, just people helping people. That’s what we want to be about.
There may be times where something doesn’t quite rise to the level of a story here, but we’re always happy to hear you out. Reach out with your inquiries to .
