๐ŸŽ‰ #GivingTuesday402 was a success! ๐ŸŽ‰

This community gave so generously this year, totaling $3.7+ million in support of 450+ Omaha metro nonprofits! Gifts came in from every which way - through SHARE Omaha, from Omaha Community Foundation donor advised funds to local community organizations, through individual nonprofit websites and even checks in the mail. However you chose to be generous and support what matters to you, thank you.

A few stats from SHARE Omaha to celebrate:

More ways to volunteer in the greater Omaha metro

CQuence Health, the lead sponsor of #GivingTuesday402, is going extra big with their giving this year, leaning in to giving their time as well as their financial support for the benefit of our local nonprofit community! They recently came together for 40 days of giving as a team, and they still have energy for more.  

Connections made at the YP Board Mixer

On November 6, 2024, area young professionals attended the Greater Omaha Chamber's YP Board Mixer and learned how make a meaningful impact in the Omaha metro through board service. This event was a unique opportunity to network with representatives from a diverse range of nonprofit organizations actively seeking new board members.

We loved meeting all the young professionals who attended and hearing what matters to them in the community. We can't wait to see what comes of the new connections made at this event
