    \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>The Community Foundation will match all gifts to the campaign up to $10,000. Participating nonprofit organizations benefit through an equal share of gifts made to the campaign distributed as grants from the Northern New York Community Foundation. The Foundation is also stewarding all gifts made to this year\u2019s campaign with opportunities to give online or through traditional methods. An online giving portal is now open at nnycf.org\/givenny<\/b>. Gifts may also be mailed to 131 Washington St., Watertown, NY\u00a0 <\/span>13601.<\/p>\n

    \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cWe are encouraged that we are able to help more charitable efforts this year through this new partnership.\u201d said Rande Richardson, Northern New York Community Foundation executive director. \u201cWe hope this year\u2019s success will lead to additional ways to maximize donor generosity in the future, enabling gifts of all sizes to go further.\u201d<\/p>\n

    \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>The campaign, now entering its third year, formally kicks off Monday, Nov. 4<\/b>, and culminates with a day of radio broadcast on Tunes 92.5 FM on #GivingTuesday, Dec. 3<\/b>. Several events to drive awareness and support take place throughout the month leading up to #GivingTuesday.<\/p>\n

    \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Jennifer Hodge, development director and corporate compliance officer for the Volunteer Transportation Center, has led the campaign to unite and aid local nonprofits since it began.<\/p>\n

    \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cI am incredibly grateful to the Community Foundation for helping a group of community-minded citizens take our local spin of #GivingTuesday to the next level,\u201d Mrs. Hodge said. \u201cBy partnering with #giveNNY and offering a $10,000 match we are going to see great things from this effort as 27 organizations from Jefferson, Lewis, and St. Lawrence counties work together for this day of giving to support worthy causes in our own backyard.\u201d<\/p>\n

    \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>The #giveNNY effort began in 2017 as a community-based, grassroots effort to unite tri-county nonprofits in a local day of giving on #GivingTuesday. Through the partnership with the Community Foundation, this year\u2019s effort has grown to expand its reach.<\/p>\n

    \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Last year, 14 nonprofits that serve residents of Jefferson, Lewis and St, Lawrence counties participated in the campaign and were each awarded a share of nearly $5,000 that was raised during the campaign. With the Community Foundation\u2019s support, organizers hope to double gifts to the campaign and increase support to the region\u2019s nonprofits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
