Give to the Max Day is an annual day of giving for Minnesota Nonprofits! Here are a few nonprofits that you can support this year to help them achieve their goals.
What if giving was easier and more fun? That's the question that gave birth to GiveMN back in 2009. This venture was first led by Minnesota Community Foundation in collaboration with other organizations to make giving more interesting.
For the launch of GiveMN they organized Give To The Max Day which was an overnight success, with MN nonprofits generating over 14 million dollars in 24 hours. This kicked off an annual tradition which thousands of nonprofits participate in.
This is Heyven's first year celebrating Give To The Max Day, and today we ask that you support our nonprofit members in reaching their goal:
