It is that time of year again for GIVE BIG WA. 

Jarrelle Marshall Is the Executive Director of RECLAIM.Org. RECLAIM provides reintegration support that centers the mental, emotional, and relational health of individuals impacted by the criminal legal system and their loved ones to better prepare them for the return home. Everyone deserves care. Care and support services should be available and accessible to all individuals and families as they integrate back into their communities.

Nancy Long is the Executive Director of 501 Commons. Give BIG is produced by 501 Commons, a nonprofit that advances the success of other nonprofits in the state. GiveBIG is an opportunity to get that great giving feeling and make our communities better for everyone. 501 Commons provides expertise to nonprofits through 30+ services, including a full range of management consulting; technology consulting (IT planning and database development); outsourced HR, accounting, IT infrastructure, and database management services; professional development and board training; and free advisory services.

Nancy is highlighting Kat Taylor the Co-Founder and a Board Chair of Beneficial State Bank, a Community Development Financial Institution and certified B Corporation that offers beneficial banking to under-resourced communities. The bank aligns all of its activities with the fairness and environmental values that most bank customers hold thereby activating their agency and accountability over their banking. Kat and her husband Tom Steyer founded the bank in 2007 on the eve of the last financial crisis on the hunch that something was terribly wrong in the banking SYSTEM. Beneficial State has set out to prove that banking that achieves social justice and environmental well-being while also being financially resilient is just a better way to do banking. Kat served as CEO of the bank for eight years and currently co-chairs its board with Tom. Kat also works in service of regenerative agriculture, policy and legislative reform, media and narrative, and of course, philanthropy.

Little Bit open house is May 19th.
