We're excited to bring back the Boone County Big Give! Start talking with your committees and boards about what your key needs are!

It's that time of year again! All charitable organizations (based in Boone County) are encouraged to attend a kick off meeting in preparation for the 13th Boone Co. Big Give! This year's giving week is November 30-December 5, 2026.

There are some changes in 2026, including a transition in coordinators so this is the perfect opportunity to meet the people who will be guiding this year's giving week.

In Boone County, the Kruses are among many Nebraskans using a charitable remainder trusts (CRT) to gain income and build a legacy.
