What is Giving Hearts Day?
Giving Hearts Day is the largest 24-hour giving event in North Dakota and Northwest Minnesota. Each year, thousands of people rally around hundreds of nonprofits in our community saying, “count me” as a Giving Heart for charity. The longest-running giving day in the country, Giving Hearts Day has helped participating charities raise more than $70 million since its founding.
