What is it?
The GREAT GIVE is a 24-hour online giving event led by the Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties, United Way of Palm Beach County, Martin County Community Foundation and United Way of Martin County designed to raise as much money as possible for local nonprofits in a single day. This community-wide event will celebrate the spirit of giving and the collective effort it takes to strengthen our community by raising critical funds for local nonprofits.
The GREAT GIVE is part of the largest online giving event in history. We are joining more than 100 community foundations across the country to raise millions of dollars for the greater good – all on a single day through Give Local America.
Every local gift will be multiplied with bonus dollars from a local pool raised by the Community Foundation and a national pool raised by Give Local America. GREAT GIVE will make every hour of May 6th meaningful by providing this unique opportunity for Palm Beach and Martin counties to raise significant funds that will make a direct, positive impact on the lives of our neediest residents. Opportunities for donors and organizations to win prizes will keep things fast-paced and exciting!
