NTX Giving Day is an 18-hour online event that allows for donations to charitable organizations. Communities Foundation of Texas facilitates the program and helped the event raise $62.6 million in 2022 through 94,385 donors that benefited 3,210 local nonprofits. Since 2009, the event has raised $503 million.

“North Texas Giving Day’s 15th anniversary is a celebration of the remarkable impact we can achieve as a community. The Meadows Foundation supports this event because we see the difference and positive ripples it creates. It truly matters.” said Peter Miller, of the Meadows Foundation.

The event’s website has a database donors can search for a nonprofit organization to help.
