On Saturday, May 4th, 2024, from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm, nonprofits will have the chance to connect face-to-face with donors and the communities they serve. It's a fantastic opportunity to showcase the impactful work being done right here in our midst. Expect a day filled with joy, featuring fun, food, music, and plenty of chances to make a difference. Bring your refillable water bottles and help us to make this a waste free event. Plenty of places to refill while you are visiting your favorite nonprofits. Don't miss out on this fabulous event! Thanks to Grant County Community Foundation and our participating sponsors for helping us reach our $500 match fund goals, ensuring each of the nonprofits receive at least $1,000! That means at least $65k will be funneled back into our community via these nonprofits. A little bit goes a long way to help keep our invaluable nonprofits to achieve their missions year after year. Can't make it in person? Not to worry! You can still support your favorite nonprofits by donating anytime between April 20th - May 20th through our giving platform, or fill out this PDF at the Grant County Community Foundation to give. Every contribution helps us continue to uplift and empower our community. | ||||
