In less than a week, you and your family will have the opportunity to join the thousands of North Texas residents who amplify their gift during a one-day online event!

Each online donation of $25 or more made between 6 am and midnight on Thursday, September 22 will be multiplied by $2.5 million in bonus funds and prizes through NorthTexasGivingDay.com.

What’s all the buzz about North Texas Giving Day, you might ask? Throughout the year a pool of funds are raised as an incentive for the North Texas community to invest in causes they care about most. The collected funds are then redistributed to organizations based on participation of their donors with online gifts.

Giving on North Texas Giving Day is a timely way to make your dollar go a little further. As with all donations made to GRACE, every dollar is maximized to bring food, clothing, shelter and medical care to local families in the midst of hardship.
