FUNDRAISING FOR 2021

Thank you all for your generous feedback and patience while we regrouped and reimagined how IOU Corvallis can make a more resilient impact.

We're ready and sustainable through the end of 2021 if you are!

Here's what's new

The community donates the funds for community meal tabs
Local restaurants agree to open a $3,000 tab (a new restaurant each week!)
IOU Corvallis pays the restaurant to encourage local business resilience
Community meals on our tab are enjoyed by anyone, no questions asked! (no alcohol on the tab)

Some FAQs:

Why only one restaurant a week?

Restaurant partners need time to plan, staff, order, communicate, prepare food, and understand the program.

Why not spread the wealth?

This is the amount of money we heard would make an impact and not create more stress for our partners.

Who is in Need? What is Need? Am I in Need?

Since It's On Us Corvallis is a community building program, we don’t think there is a way to measure the need for a gift. That's why all are welcome, and we trust your own assessment of yourself.
