You Showed Us the #ImpactOfADonation…Now Announcing the Winner!

When we launched our #ImpactOfADonation contest three weeks ago, we had no idea the amount of excitement it would generate.

To help donors truly understand the meaning of “every dollar counts,” Public Interest Registry and Giving Tuesday will
