#GiveBIG
It's that time of year at the Seattle Foundation where your donation to your favorite group gets a bump up. If you are really busy, you don't have to wait for Tuesday, May 3rd; they have made it possible to schedule your donation.
Plus there's this:
My rough count is over 1,000 groups represented with education (at 363) just bumping out arts&culture (at 357.) I see a few oddities in the education group (Crosscut?)
There are many SPS groups like Ballard High foundation, Denny Sealth Performing Arts, Friends of Garfield Orchestra, Graham Hill PTA, Hazel Wolf K-8 PTA, Highland Park PTA, Ingraham Rocket Club, John Muir PTA, Kimball PTA, Roosevelt High Foundation, Seattle World School Alumni Scholarships, STEM K-8 PTA, and Thurgood Marshall PTA.
Wondering who else to donate to in the education realm? I recommend the Southeast Seattle Education Coalition, TAF (Technology Access Foundation), NW School for Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Children, and SOWA (School's Out Washington.)
But no matter what category you support or what group, this is really a great day to stretch those donor dollars AND show what a caring community we live in. Their goal is $20M in 24 hours.
There are no small donations when you give from the heart.
Plus there's this:
Corporate sponsored Golden Tickets will be announced throughout the day on GiveBIG giving lucky donors a chance to win additional bonus dollars for their favorite nonprofit.
