GiveMN’s Give to the Max Day – November 16

Nonprofit organizations throughout the state will once again ask Minnesotans to display their record breaking generosity during the second annual “Give to the Max Day” on November 16.

Dana Nelson, executive director of GiveMN.org, is optimistic about this year and has a goal of engaging more than 40,000 donors within the 24 hour time period. To help achieve this goal, new incentives for nonprofits and donor participation have been created such as:
· A $20,000 and $10,000 prize grant will be awarded to the top two nonprofits in the Twin Cities and the top two nonprofits in greater Minnesota that attract the largest number of individual donors on Give to the Max Day.

· Throughout the event, an individual donor will be randomly chosen every hour to have an additional $1,000 given to the charity that received the donor’s original donation.

· Donors will have the opportunity to double their dollars for hundreds of featured nonprofits that have secured matching funds for Give to the Max Day.

GiveMN has a list of the top 5 hints to create a great profile page to increase donations to your organization, see the complete list. There is also a how-to video and other tools and resources that will help you maximize your presence which can be found at http://www.blog.givemn.org/.
