Be A Giver On Give To The Max Day



Returning for it's fifth year, Give To The Max Day is a 24-hour online fundraising campaign for non-profit organizations and schools.  Donations started rolling in at midnight today (Thursday) and will continue through 11:59 pm through the website givemn.org.  While you may be saying to yourself that you already give to your favorite charities, you may want to reconsider giving on this day each year because of matching grants.  In order to boost donations there are up to $6 million in matching grants including some special prize grants and "power hours" where your money can stretch even further.

The site also boasts a leaderboard, an interactive map showing where donations are coming it, a listing of all the different organizations that you can contribute to, the current level of donations as well as the remaining amount of matching grants available.

At the time of publishing this article, with over 14 hours left, the donations were totalling just over $6 million with about $5 million left in matching grants available.

Your dollars will benefit schools, shelters, food shelves, community foundations, faith organizations, parks, art foundations and many more.  The beneficiaries are located in the metro area as well as throughout rural Minnesota.  No matter where your passions lie, there is a group that could benefit from your generosity today.

Be a Giver!  Give To The Max today!
