📚 From our Gala to their scholars.

At this year's Passport to Possibility Gala, we were proud to spotlight Buffalo Prep — a Western New York institution that has been illuminating brilliance since 1989. Buffalo Prep isn't a school — it's a school of thought. They invite academically ambitious, underrepresented youth to participate in a rigorous pipeline of summer and after-school enrichment programs that begin as early as 5th grade and follow scholars all the way through high school and beyond.

Serving over 800 Western New York students and alumni annually through programs like Middle School Prep, High School Prep, College Prep, and Alumni Prep, Buffalo Prep works to close the access and opportunity gaps that have long impacted students of color in our community — nurturing the dreamer, the leader, the activist, and the scholar in every student they serve.

Trusted Gives was honored to deliver this donation to support their mission of educational equity right here in Buffalo. 💙

A backpack isn't just a bag. 💛

It's confidence on the first day of school.
It's one less worry for a family.
It's an expression of who you are.

If this means something to you — share it and/or tag a friend and local business
We are looking for more sponsors/individual donations or school supplies from the Amazon Wish List - https://ow.ly/spFK50YVxxL

🌱 From our Gala to their garden.

At this year's Passport to Possibility Gala, we were proud to spotlight 5 Loaves Farm as one of our Donation Moments — a community hub on Buffalo's West Side growing so much more than produce. Through sustainable urban farming, they work to make healthy food affordable and accessible to city neighbors, while also running a youth program that puts young Buffalonians to work in the soil and in their community.

On May 5th, Trusted Gives was honored to deliver this donation directly to their team. 💚

Look what this community is building. 🎒
Every item ordered from our wish list (https://ow.ly/W6qQ50YQOka) helps fill backpacks for a Buffalo kid at 716 CommUNITY Day on July 16th.

So please, share this post so more of Buffalo sees what we're doing and Tag a local Business!

Those businesses could be our next sponsor. More sponsors means we can add gift cards to every single pack and fill more backpacks!🎁

🎬 Austin Powers & Vanessa Kensington
👗 Cher Horowitz from Clueless
🖖 Lt. Commander Worf from Star Trek: TNG
🎮 Bop It (yes, THE toy)
🪆 Cynthia from Rugrats — YOUR WINNER! 🏆

Thank you to everyone who came out, dressed up, danced, and gave back. Every dollar raised goes directly toward supporting families right here in the WNY community. We couldn't do this without YOU! ❤️

Repost this if you believe Buffalo takes care of its own. 💙

We're building a free Clothing Closet for our neighbors at 716 CommUNITY Day at MLK Park — and every share helps us reach more donors.

Drop off gently used clothing at 500 Seneca St (Spring St lobby). Daily from 08:30AM to 05:30PM DM us to set up a workplace collection.

🎳 Trusted Gives was proud to sponsor Bowling for Beds 2026, hosted by Russell J. Salvatore and benefiting Sleep in Heavenly Peace – Buffalo at Transit Lanes!

Sleep in Heavenly Peace is a fully volunteer-run nonprofit on a mission to make sure no kid sleeps on the floor in our town. The Buffalo chapter launched in 2020 and has since built and delivered thousands of handmade beds to children right here in WNY — providing not just furniture, but the dignity of a good night's rest.

Through events like "Bunks Across Buffalo," volunteers gather to hand-build beds, then deliver them directly to families in need across the city. The chapter has grown to become one of the top-performing in the country, and recently expanded its reach to serve children in Niagara Falls as well.

Nationally, SHP has delivered well over 350,000 beds to children — and tens of thousands more kids are still on the waitlist tonight.

We're grateful to be part of a community that shows up for its kids. 💙

🎉 WELCOME BACK, Tops Friendly Markets! 🎉

We are PROUD to announce that Tops Friendly Markets is returning as a Presenting Sponsor of 716 CommUNITY Day — July 16th, 2026 at MLK Park! 💛

The relationship between Tops and Trusted Gives runs deeper than a sponsorship. The tragedy that took place at the Jefferson Avenue Tops on May 14, 2022 is the very reason Trusted Gives exists — and the fact that Tops has stood beside us every single year since we began taking sponsors speaks VOLUMES about their commitment to healing, hope, and this community. 🙏

Year after year, Tops shows up with thousands of pounds of fresh produce — making sure families on Buffalo's East Side have access to healthy food, completely FREE. And their giving doesn't stop there. Through their community partnerships, Tops has made donations in excess of $7 million to nonprofit organizations, provided over two million meals through their Food 2 Families campaign, and continues to pour back into the neighborhoods they serve every single day. 💪

This is what it looks like when a company truly means it. Shop Tops — support a business that has never stopped supporting Buffalo. 🛒💛
