$360,454 Raised | 1,183 Donors 

We are thrilled to announce this year's #BrooklynGives on Giving Tuesday campaign has raised over $360,000 in just 24 hours! 

Donors across Brooklyn and beyond responded to our $100,000 donation challenge, helping far surpass last year's totals in support of 20 extraordinary local nonprofits that are finalists for our Spark Prize.

Thanks to you, #BrooklynGives on Giving Tuesday is quickly becoming the most generous day of the year in Brooklyn as more and more donors pledge to give where they live and support the nonprofits that help our communities grow stronger and thrive.  

Head to BrooklynGives.org to explore all of yesterday's results on the #BrooklynGives Leaderboard. Congrats to Exalt Youth for being the top fundraising organization with nearly $38,000 raised, and to Atlas:DIY for the most individual donors at 172!

The excitement doesn't stop here...

In early January, we will announce the 5 nonprofits selected for this year's Spark Prize. Each will receive a "no strings attached" grant of $100,000 and will be honored at our Spark Prize Celebration breakfast on February 8th. We hope you will join us. 

We are so grateful to our lead #BrooklynGives sponsor TD Bank as well as National Grid, and to our partners at the Office of the Brooklyn Borough President and the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce—especially the Young BK Professionals for hosting the #BrooklynGives Last Call fundraiser!
