It was another record-breaking year for the annual online fundraising campaign, Give for Good.
In 2014, the Community Foundation of North Louisiana launched the day of giving and extended an invitation for individuals to become philanthropists by donating gifts that would help transform their community.
This year, CFNLA reported a total of $2,301,350 raised for the 24 participating area nonprofit organizations at the close of Give for Good Day on May 4. The 10,113 gifts tallied were contributed by donors across the country.
For 2021, CFNLA extended the donation window to allow advance giving from April 20 to May 3.
“From the beginning of COVID-19, many area nonprofits never closed their doors and stepped up to serve the growing community needs,” says CFNLA CEO Kristi Gustavson. “North Louisiana has always been such a giving community and we are thrilled that donors rallied around the vital nonprofits that make our community a brighter place.”
