Just six hours into 2021 North Texas Giving Day and emailboxes are filling up with reminders that the big fundraising day has arrived. And folks are responding with moolah and volunteer hours.
The latest report is that more than $34M has been donated and 11,800+ volunteers have signed up. According to the MySweetCharity abacus, that translates into $5M+ and nearly 2,000 pledged volunteers per hour.
If the momentum keeps up, 2021 North Texas Giving Day is in line to bust through last year’s $58M goal and 23,000 volunteer donors.
Remember if you don’t have the ca-ching, you might have time to volunteer. It’s easy to search for the nonprofit of your choice to help.
