May 5th, 2015 was Give Local Piedmont Day—our community’s one-day online giving event where incentives and matching funds are made available to inspire people to give to local non-profit organizations. This year, the community spirit was palpable as organizations competed for bonuses for everything from ‘most donors in an hour’ to ‘donors who lived farthest away.’ Finley’s supporters really got into the fun, ending the day with the second highest number of donors of small non-profits and the 8th highest total donation dollars out of all 139 organizations. The Fund raised $22,238 in donations, bonuses, and matching funds on that one day in May!
