🌿 Ivy found this today:

"A teacher in Romania turned a rented apartment into a classroom for children the public school system left behind."

"This rescue only takes senior dogs — the ones nobody else wants."

"A woman decided her garage could feed her entire neighborhood. So it does."

"First-generation girls learning robotics after school — because someone decided they deserved to."

"A nonprofit helping veterans transition into farming — one acre, one life, one second chapter at a time."

Where Ivy started

This started with a woman who spent eight years in Romania.

Laura Larkin volunteered at a children's hospital in Bârlad for eight years. The children she met as babies were growing up with no access to school — not because their families didn't love them, but because the system had no place for them.

She and Lauren Fishbach founded The Delia Foundation to change that. Children who finally had a classroom. Finally had therapy. Finally had someone who showed up every single day.

"When DonorSee closed, small nonprofits like The Delia Foundation lost more than a fundraising platform. We lost one of the few places where donors could actually find us. So we built Ivy." — Laura Larkin, Founder

Ivy · Nonprofit Discovery
I want to help kids but I don't know where my donation would actually matter.
Ivy: I can help with that. Do you want to support education, disability services, foster care, or basic needs?
Disability services — somewhere small where $35 actually means something.
Ivy: The Delia Foundation. A teacher turned a rented apartment into a full-day program for children with disabilities in Romania who were excluded from school. $35 fills one chair for a month — education, therapy, meals, and someone who shows up every single day.
