We here at MCF would like to take a moment to salute all those who participated in GiveMN’s Give to the Max Day — the donors, nonprofits, foundations, and the staff who made it possible.
The official results aren’t in yet, but according to the tracker at GiveMN.org $13 million dollars were raised for over 3,000 nonprofits in the state of Minnesota yesterday. We at MCF are fond of talking about the amazing generosity of Minnesotans to pretty much anyone who will listen, and it’s truly inspiring for us to see such an outpouring of that spirit of giving that we’re so proud to be a part of.
Give to the Max Day was made possible thanks to the generosity of The Saint Paul Foundation, The Minneapolis Foundation and the Bush Foundation who committed $500,000 in matching contributions to support community needs in Minnesota and to cover transaction fees so that 100% of all donations go to the nonprofit organizations. For information on the results of Give to the Max Day, stay tuned to GiveMN.org.
