Make a Difference

At Common Good Collective, we believe that community is the solution to many of today’s most pressing problems—loneliness, isolation, division, and disconnection.

Your gift helps us create spaces of welcome, healing, and belonging right here in Richmond.

Whether it’s a workshop that connects strangers, a program that supports vulnerable neighbors, or a shared table where people feel seen for the first time in a long time—your generosity makes it possible.

This Giving Tuesday, Help Make Richmond a Little Less Lonely

Your gift launches the very first programs of The Common Good Collective, including The Unlonely Project — a series of community dinners and connection-focused gatherings beginning in January.

Loneliness is rising faster than ever in our city, but we believe it’s solvable.
This Giving Tuesday, we’re raising $5,000 to fund many of our simple, relational programs that help neighbors feel seen, supported, and connected.

Your generosity makes it possible for us to:

  • Provide meals for community dinners

  • Host our first Unlonely Project gathering on January 17

  • Offer job-readiness support to neighbors in need

  • Grow a movement of connection in Richmond

Every dollar helps build a more connected community.

Why give?

Because community doesn’t build itself.

Every day, more of our neighbors are feeling isolated, overlooked, or disconnected. The loneliness epidemic is real—and it's not just a feeling. It’s impacting health, relationships, and the future of our communities.

At Common Good Collective, we believe the solution is simple, but powerful:
Create spaces where people can be known, valued, and connected.

Your gift helps us do that. It helps us:

  • Start conversations that bridge divides

  • Host workshops and gatherings that combat isolation

  • Partner with neighbors to meet local needs with dignity

  • Train volunteers and leaders to be agents of welcome in their own circles

  • Build toward the long-term vision of shared space and shared life

Giving isn’t just charity—it’s participation.

When you give to Common Good Collective, you’re not just supporting a nonprofit.
You’re helping reimagine what it means to be a good neighbor in Richmond.

You’re investing in a future where more people are seen, supported, and surrounded by community.

Let’s build it together.
