Thank you to everyone who participated in America’s Giving Challenge 2009! It has been an incredible 30 days that generated over $2 million in donations and awards for thousands of nonprofits. Since the Giving Challenge started on October 7th, 106,701 donations have been made to the 7,875 causes who participated in the Challenge. The official winners will be announced soon but we can already say that everyone who participated did an incredible job of rallying support, online and offline. Stories are pouring in from all around the world of individuals taking initiative and rallying their friends, relatives, coworkers, and classmates to donate to their favorite causes. Nonprofits and individuals worked together to make videos, write emails, post on blogs and websites, hold events, knock on doors, and more. We look forward to announcing the winners soon but congratulations to everyone who made this such an amazing 30 days!

So is there going to be another giving challenge for 2010? Not sure how I feel about this one. If it was a football game, I would have changed the channel. Just too one sided. Congratulations to the top winners. You demonstrated astounding motivation.
Thank you! We raised more than $10,000 for San Diego’s foster children through the America’s Giving Challenge! It was our first attempt at “activating” our Causes members and wow, did they ever come through for us! For a relatively small, regional charity, we gave those large international groups some competition! (We came in third in the “human services” category!!) It was fun and motivating to everyone involved. Congrats to every cause that participated! Please do it again next year!
