Nominate Someone for Assistance

Who We Serve

The James D. Rielly Foundation reviews nominations for individuals and families in Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts. Because of the size and scope of our organization, we are generally unable to consider requests outside this service area.

Do you know a child, family, veteran, or individual facing hardship who could use support?

The James D. Rielly Foundation accepts nominations throughout the year for those connected to our military, veterans, law enforcement, fire service, first responder communities, and others in need of help during difficult times.

Support is not limited to Christmas. While holiday assistance is one part of our mission, we provide help year-round based on each situation and the resources available.

If you would like to nominate someone, please complete the form and share as much detail as possible about the need, the circumstances, and why support would make a difference. The more information you provide, the better we can review the nomination.

Please note that submitting a nomination does not guarantee assistance. We receive many requests and do our best to help as many individuals and families as we can.

We also ask that you keep your nomination confidential out of respect for the person or family involved.
