The GCI Gives Partnership
GCI's annual giving is an integral part of a commitment to fostering positive change in Alaska’s communities. The annual giving cycle provides nonprofits the opportunity to secure funding and support for their initiatives.
Focus areas
GCI focuses its giving on seven key areas, including cultural arts and innovation, education, healthy communities, youth, animals, diversity and inclusion, and public safety.
Variety of support offered
When applying, nonprofits can specify what type of support they are looking for. Options include cash donations, in-kind service credits, in-kind tech donations. Please note we no longer offer loaner devices.
