GlobalGiving's Response to COVID-19
GlobalGiving launched a Coronavirus Relief Fund on January 27, 2020, and began working with companies seeking to respond in that same time frame. Our goal is always to support as many of our community-led nonprofits as possible. Through May 28th, the Fund has raised $7.8M from individual and institutional donors. Individual projects posted by our nonprofit partners have raised ~$2.3M. Companies have contributed an additional ~$17M through cause marketing and grant programs facilitated by GlobalGiving, bringing our community's total response to more than $27M.
