Deadline for nonprofits to enroll in Arizona Gives Day coming up

Local businesses can participate in April 6 event

Posted

The deadline for nonprofits wishing to participate in this year’s Arizona Gives Day is Friday, March 5.

Coming off a record-breaking Arizona Gives Day 2020 when donors generated $6.1 million for nonprofits statewide, the 2021 event on Tuesday, April 6 is more important than ever given the financial impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

Registration and re-enrollment is open for Arizona nonprofits interested in participating in the 24-hour online fundraising event.

Arizona Gives Day is an annual giving movement, uniting nonprofits, big and small, new and established, to celebrate and increase philanthropy in Arizona through online giving at AZGives.org. This online event helps raise awareness about the critical role Arizona nonprofits play in communities and inspires people to give.

“Nonprofits across Arizona are still reeling from the impact of the coronavirus, yet they consistently continued bringing vital services, resources and even entertainment to communities across the state,” Alliance of Arizona Nonprofits CEO Kristen Merrifield stated in a news release. “Arizona Gives Day offers an opportunity to show how much nonprofits are appreciated and necessary on so many levels.”

Nonprofits registering or re-registering for Arizona Gives Day 2021 also will find:

  • A “roadmap” to guide nonprofits through the registration process.
  • The opportunity to submit support requests online.
  • The ability for organizations to include any matching grant amount and their fundraising goal on their profile page.
  • The opportunity for their biggest fans and donors to create their own fundraising page.
  • More than $1.4 million in incentive prizes has been awarded since 2013.

AZGives.org provides a toolkit and templates for participating nonprofits to assist in outreach through social media, email, and news releases. It also offers training videos, promotional graphics, logos, best-practices guides, and successful fundraising strategies used by other nonprofits.
