GiveBIG May 2

On May 2, 2012, Give Big to local area non-profits through a one day, 24 hour promoiton.  GiveBIG is a community-wide day of giving hosted by The Seattle Foundation that will increase the size of your donation.   Last year during GiveBIG, $4.1 million was raised to support over 900 nonprofits in our community.  Plan to be a part of this success again in 2012!

GiveBIG will increase your impact in several ways:  A share of every contribution made through The Seattle Foundation’s online Giving Center between midnight and midnight on May 2 will be matched by The Seattle Foundation and GiveBIG’s corporate sponsors, who have put $500,000 into the “stretch pool.”

Win a Golden Ticket! During the day, you could be chosen at random to have your charity of choice receive an additional $1000 from GiveBIG’s sponsors.  This year, the selected donor will also be eligible to win a Starbucks gift card worth $100!

Consider donating to local nonprofits Downtown Issaquah Association, FISH, Issaquah History Museums, artEAST or the Village theatre.
