To help generate donations, and possibly win thousands of additional dollars in awards, on November 9th Good Shepherd Housing will be competing in Give to the Max Day: Greater Washington (www.give2max.org), a massive one-day regional online fundraiser to support local programs. More than a thousand nonprofits that serve the greater Washington region will ask donors to display their generosity in a region-wide competition to raise as much money as possible, and gain as many supporters as possible, in order to win hundreds of thousands of dollars in awards.

For 24 hours, starting at 12:00 AM on November 9th, nonprofits will drive their supporters online to donate, creating a huge display of support for one of the region’s largest sectors.  There will be more than $100,000 in cash awards available for local nonprofits who generate the most in donations, and those that attract the most individual donors.

The Washington area nonprofit sector is one of the region’s most important economic drivers.  To help local nonprofits, Give to the Max Day: Greater Washington was created by online fundraiser Razoo, and organized and supported by The Community Foundation for the National Capital Region and United Way of the National Capital Area.
