Folks, I believe that it's really important to give back to our communities. One way to do that is to participate in #GivingTuesday and CrowdRise's Holiday Challenge for nonprofits.
to go toward the winner of the Challenge, and together, with the other donors, there will be $250,000 in prize money.

The Giving Tower Holiday Challenge is a great way for organizations to rally their supporters, raise money for their cause, drive engagement, get lots of exposure and, most importantly, raise money for their cause (note intentional repetition).

The Challenge is friendly fundraising competition launched by craigconnects, Fred and Joanne Wilson, and MacAndrews & Forbes. It's designed to help you raise awareness and lots of money for your year end fundraising.
