The Coastal Bend Day of Giving is back for the 10th year in a row! It's a 24-hour online fundraiser benefiting 50 area nonprofits, and matching donors from South Texas will double your donations.
The event is hosted every year by the Coastal Bend Community Foundation to support the nonprofits who are at the forefront of assisting those in need. In 2017, more than 6,900 people raised $2.36 million to support 45 local nonprofits.
This year, they're supporting 50 nonprofits, and you can help! Matching donors have pledged $900,000 in funds so that anything you donate can be doubled up to $18,000 per nonprofit!
Not sure who to donate to? Here's a list of the nonprofits involved in this year's Coastal Bend Day of Giving. See what they're all about, and donate to any one or more of the nonprofits that you want to help; and if you still can't decide, any donation made to the Coastal Bend Community Foundation will be distributed equally to all of the participating nonprofits!
