Big Day of Giving

Big Day of Giving The next Big Day of Giving is on May 6, 2027. Big Day of Giving is made possible by the hard work of local nonprofits and the dedication of their supporters.

Big Day of Giving is the Sacramento region's day-long giving challenge that has raised over $132 million for area nonprofits since 2013, hosted by the Sacramento Region Community Foundation! A program of the Sacramento Region Community Foundation's initiative to grow philanthropy in the capital area, Big Day of Giving is a 24-hour online giving challenge that brings together the region's nonprofit community to help raise much needed unrestricted funds and shine a spotlight on the work nonprofits do to make the Sacramento region the place we call home.

Happy ! Our staff practice doing good in their neighborhoods and communities in many different ways.
🌟 Cynthia, our Senior Staff Accountant, volunteers for the American River Clean Up every year with her partner Rick.
🌟 Jasmine, our Senior Communications Coordinator, joins local groups to provide cooling and hydration stations around Sacramento during heat waves.
🌟 Jessica, our Chief Impact Officer, gathers with her family and other families on their street to host neighborhood events, like Halloween and Neighbor's Night Out.
🌟 Monica, our Director of Community Impact, participates in the Center for Land-Based Learning's Student Landowner Education & Watershed Stewardship (SLEW) mentorship program, an effort to restore habitat for native plants, animals and pollinators.
🌟 Tina, our Director of Scholarships and Awards, gets together with her women's group every holiday season to pick a volunteer project and help families and community members in need. One year, they made care packages for unhoused neighbors, providing presents, meals, and other necessities to multiple families.

Last week, our Senior Communications Coordinator, Jasmine, went to the PBS KVIE Art Auction Artist Celebration. While there, she got to see all of the incredible pieces donated by local, professional artistsβ€”including this piece, which was created in part by one of the members of our board of directors at the Sacramento Region Community Foundation, Pramila Kriplani!

All proceeds from art purchases through the Art Auction benefit the programs and services provided by PBS KVIE. There's still time to bid on artwork! Learn more here: https://www.kvie.org/events/art-auction/
