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.
