Donors can give online from midnight to midnight on May 4, 2023, at GiveDeKalbCounty.org. Between April 20 and May 4, those who prefer to donate by check can print a donation form from the website and give by mail. Eligible organizations can register to participate by April 1 at GiveDeKalbCounty.org.
Give DeKalb County is coordinated by the DeKalb County Nonprofit Partnership (DCNP), a program of the DeKalb County Community Foundation. The previous nine giving days raised over $6.8 million through 38,651 donations combined.
“Celebrate a decade of generosity with Give DeKalb County in 2023,” said Ben Bingle, DCNP Director. “Last year, donors rallied together and raised more than $1.5 million, making a profound impact throughout DeKalb County. We look forward to another electrifying event and encourage nonprofits to check their eligibility and sign up now to join Give DeKalb County 2023.”
Participating nonprofits must be 501(c)3 organizations located in or serving DeKalb County, legally registered with the Illinois Attorney General’s Office, and 2023 DCNP members by March 1, 2023. The deadline to register for Give DeKalb County as a participating organization is April 1, 2023.
