Thanks to our community's generous nature, the community was able to raise over $170,000 during #Giving2sday. When combined with the $35,000 pro-rated matching funds ($25,000 from the Foundation's Board of Trustees, $2,500 each from The Mason Companies, Geenex Solar, and the Hord Family Donor Advised Fund of TCF4CC, $2,250 from the Carter Family Donor Advised Fund of TCF4CC, and $250 from ADM Benefit Plans Agency, Inc.) and our six $500 contest prizes (sponsored by Mizick Miller & Company, Inc. and Crossroads Original Designs),  the grand total for #Giving2sday 2025 was over $208,600! This means that for every donation you made, your chosen fund received a little more than $0.22 per dollar.

Our second contest, Crossroads Original Designs Power Hour sponsored by Crossroads Original Designs, took place on #Giving2sday between the hours of 6pm and 7pm. Every donation made ONLINE during that time period entered the donor’s name into a random drawing to win the right to choose a fund to receive an additional $500 gift.
