Following the grand success of the India Giving Challenge held a couple of months ago, we decided to hold another challenge($15000), only for US donors to make their end-of-year giving go even further. So, everyday between December 15 - 30, we were giving away a matching of US$250 to the NGO that raises the most funds that day. Check out our daily winners.
The leading NGO as of 31/12/2009 was Operation ASHA with donations totalling $1,848. While more than $21,000 has been raised through the first US End-of-Year Giving Challenge so far, we would require a couple of days for a final check as well as clearance of any pending transactions made during Dec 15th-Dec 30th, 2009 by Paypal. Please note that we will notify the overall winners by January 7th, 2010. While the funds raised by you will reach you in the regular January disbursement, the matching funds will be disbursed by February 15th, 2010 at the latest. If you would like to share with us your experience or any thoughts related to the Challenge, do write in to tarika@giveindia.org. This will help us hold better challenges in the coming years. Please read the attachment.
