The 36-Hour Giving Challenge is an online giving event inspiring donors and citizen philanthropists to learn more about the nonprofits and causes in Southwest Florida they care about most.

The Community Foundation of Sarasota County, Gulf Coast Community Foundation, and Manatee Community Foundation - with the support of The Patterson Foundation - have partnered to launch The Giving Partner and to make the 36-Hour Giving Challenge possible. Together, they are providing matching funds of $501,000.

- Help us get a special grant for attracting the most donors. (We can win up to $20,000 by having the most unique donors give $25 or more to us.)

- Help us earn one of 20 grants for being among the first nonprofits to have 50 donors donate $50 or more.
