Annual day of charitable giving is coming, with donations matched for various community funds, animal shelter and youth center.
The Fulton County Community Foundation is launching its annual Giving Tuesday campaign leading up to the Dec. 3 event.
Thanks to a matching opportunity offered through Lilly Endowment Inc., all gifts to community funds will be matched $2 for every $1 donated. That means a $100 gift would garner a $200 match and result in a total contribution of $300.
Additionally, thanks to local business RapidView, there is a $1 for $1 match opportunity up to $10,000 for the Fulton County Animal Adoption and Education Center and $20,000 for The Outlet Youth Center.
Giving Tuesday is an international day of celebration for local and global nonprofits that work year-round serving their communities.
This year’s event is 10 a.m.-5:30 p.m. at the foundation’s office, 227 E. Ninth St., Rochester, and lunch will be served from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
