GiveBIG 2015Next Tuesday, May 5th, get ready to GiveBIG during the Seattle Foundation’s one-day, online charitable giving event designed to inspire people to give to local nonprofit organizations. GiveBIG is returning for its fifth year, and it runs from midnight to midnight on Tuesday, May 5th.

The goal of GiveBIG is to encourage new and returning donors to support local nonprofit organizations, with a boost to those individual donations via the The Seattle Foundation and GiveBIG sponsors including Seattle International Foundation, Boeing, Microsoft, Medina Foundation, Starbucks and more.

Last year, over $12.9 million was raised for nearly 1,500 nonprofits on GiveBIG day, with 64,269 individual gifts made. You can take part this year by donating via the GiveBIG site, where you can search for local nonprofits.

Here are some of this year’s Queen Anne nonprofits that you can support on GiveBIG day:

Queen Anne Farmers Market
Queen Anne Food Bank
Queen Anne Helpline
Queen Anne Historical Society
Pacific Northwest Ballet
Pacific Science Center
Seattle Center Foundation
SIFF

The above is just an abbreviated list of local nonprofits. You can find even more Queen Anne-based nonprofits on the GiveBIG site – just plug in 98109 or 98119 in the search box, find your favorite nonprofit, and GiveBig on May 5th!
