BARN AGAIN! Saturday, October 10 at 6:00 p.m. |
Give to the Max Day is a day for Minnesotans to come together to raise as much money as possible for nonprofits in 24 hours - starting at midnight on November 16 through midnight on November 17. GiveMN will be offering several incentives to inspire nonprofit and donor participation in Give to the Max Day, including a $15,000, $10,000 and $5,000 prize awarded to the top three small nonprofits which receive the most dollars on Give to the Max Day. Plus, throughout the event, an individual will be randomly chosen every hour to have $1,000 given to the charity that received the donor's original donation. The more people to donate to Pioneer throughout the day, the better chance we have of winning an additional $1,000. Better yet, donate during the early morning hours when fewer donations are made to increase your chances of winning!
