Why have I Heart Progress Day?

Many non-profit organizations experience an incredible flurry of excitement in fundraising on the annual Giving Hearts Day. But some in our community don’t realize that there are organizations doing important work that are not able to participate due to GHD program parameters, cost, or missional fit. So, why not create a space with a central location to highlight those often forgotten on this regional day of giving.

The orgs on this site are not the only ones not a participating in GHD 2024. After making some donations here, seek out other worthy causes to support! Is your organization not listed here? Let any of us know and we’d love to have you join us next year!
