The 5th Annual #SimplyGiving Project
Event Information
Description
We at Fresh Touch Publicity are passionate about Memphis, Philanthropy, and Business and have finally combined all three into our 5th Annual #SimplyGiving Project, where we hold a grassroots tangible-item and monetary fundraiser for a local, small nonprofit organization. Let’s face it, grants usually are distributed for a specific program, upgrading specific technology or equipment. Most times, those grants cannot be used for daily or monthly operational expenses and that is the hole the #SimplyGiving Project tends to fill. In past fundraisers, we’ve collected cash, clothes, shoes, groceries, personal hygiene items, and supplies. We always make sure we speak with people within those nonprofits to understand their immediate needs.
This year, we’re working with Kaete Event Logistics to plan a city-wide scavenger hunt with community leaders gunning for the grand cash prize that will be donated to a local nonprofit. You will be able to donate online the week of Oct 4-10 and the actual day of the scavenger hunt will take place Saturday, October 10, 2015 and we would need people there to cheer the participates on at the Candle Bakery. The nonprofits were nominated by the public and the community leaders will randomly choose which one they will be representing in the scavenger hunt. The participating nonprofits are:
The participates representing them will be announced SOON!
