HILLIARD, Ohio – Hilliard residents and others wanting to help their neighbors and community during the COVID-19 crisis are urged to support the “Hilliard Gives: We’re All In This Together” charitable initiative.
Financial contributions to the Hilliard Community Foundation’s “Hilliard Gives” campaign will be used to directly benefit community non-profit organizations that are on the front lines supporting local residents who have been impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.

“We will weather this storm as one community,” said Bob Apel, Hilliard Community Foundation Board Chair. “The Hilliard Community Foundation stands ready to support the community during this crisis by dispersing collected funds quickly to local non-profits that are working to help our affected residents. We’re all in this together – and together we will show the compassion and caring spirit Hilliard residents have in their hearts.”
Because of the COVID-19 response, many people in the community have found themselves without a guaranteed income or access to basic needs that can be provided most effectively through local non-profit agencies. These agencies can apply to the Hilliard Community Foundation to request funds they can use to directly benefit those most in need.
“This is an unprecedented time for our country and our community,” said City Manager Michelle Crandall. “We have heard from many people who want to find an appropriate way to open their hearts and help their neighbors but are not sure how they can best make a difference. Contributing to the ‘Hilliard Helps’ campaign shows you recognize that we are all in this together.
