Catholic Charities Is Participating in 11th Annual Give to the Max Day on November 14

Catholic Charities is again partnering with nonprofit organization GiveMN to participate in Give to the Max Day, Minnesota’s homegrown giving holiday, on Thursday, November 14. The annual 24-hour online fundraiser, now in its 11th year, has raised more than $170 million for more than 10,000 Minnesota-based causes. Donors can visit GiveMN.org/organization/ccstcloudand donate anytime on November 14.

“Minnesotans are known for their generosity, and it’s no surprise that our state dedicates and supports 24 hours of giving to nonprofits and schools statewide,” said Eric Vollen, Marketing and Public Relations Manager, Catholic Charities of the Diocese of St. Cloud. “Catholic Charities is one of the largest social service nonprofit organizations in Central Minnesota, with programs that focus on six main areas: housing; emergency services; mental health; children and family services; senior health and wellness; and community support services, outreach, and organizing. Donations support more than 30 programs across these areas.”

In addition, GiveMN and its partners will award $100,000 in prizes to nonprofits and schools through Golden Ticket drawings. Event organizers work with funders and partners each year to plan Give to the Max Day as a celebration of the important work nonprofits and schools do in Minnesota communities.

“Give to the Max Day has become the Minnesota giving holiday for the past ten years,” said Jake Blumberg, executive director of GiveMN. “For 24 hours, thousands of organizations and individuals rally to support amazing and important causes that make Minnesota a great place to live, work, and play.”
