ALABAMA GIVES DAY
On February 2, 2012 the Alabama Association of Nonprofits, in partnership with the Alabama Broadcasters Association, is doing something in Alabama that’s never been done. We’re taking one day to harness the power of individual contributions statewide, connecting new and existing donors with thousands of Alabama nonprofits. Going a step further than other successful Gives Days that just helped one particular city, Alabama Gives Day takes philanthropy to another level by benefiting nonprofits across the entire state. This historic event in Alabama, backed by the marketing power of Alabama radio and television stations, will further help charitable organizations continue to provide a broad spectrum of aid across the state of Alabama. Alabama Gives Day will take place during a 24-hour period starting at 12 a.m. on February 2nd, 2012. Donations will be accepted online via a centralized and secure site owned by AAN called Nonprofits Matter. ALL gifts made during the event are donor determined, meaning the donor selects who they are giving to from the list of participating organizations. At the conclusion of the event the Nonprofits Matter website will launch as a new tool provided by the Alabama Association of Nonprofits for nonprofits to use as their online giving portal allowing them to save hundreds of dollars each year in monthly hosting fees ordinarily charged by PayPal, Authorize.net and other merchant credit card processing vendors. Reasons why: • Increase public awareness of Alabama’s amazing nonprofit sector. • Promote the ease and safety of online giving. • Connect new individual donors to participating nonprofits while giving current donors an opportunity to give again. • Provide nonprofits with a complimentary online giving platform they can use year-round outside of Gives Day. • Raise as much money as possible in 24 hours from individuals • Fulfills the mission of the Alabama Association of Nonprofits to support and strengthen Alabama’s nonprofit sector.
