Here is how you can take part in South Louisiana Giving Day
Nonprofit organizations in Terrebonne and Lafourche are taking part in the fifth annual South Louisiana Giving Day on Thursday.
Twenty-nine area nonprofits are participating in the 24-hour online fundraising event hosted by Community Foundation of Acadiana to support 190 nonprofit organizations, churches and schools serving south Louisiana.
The Bayou Community Foundation is participating in the giving event and helping to promote SOLA Giving Day in the Bayou Region, with sponsorship support from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana, Executive Director Jennifer Armand said.
“We encourage residents across the Bayou Region to show their love for the local nonprofits and causes they care about with an online gift this Thursday for SOLA Giving Day,” Armand said. “Since Hurricane Ida, nonprofits have been working around the clock on the front lines, delivering critical relief to those suffering around us, and doing it all with compassion and generosity. Sustainability of our local nonprofits and their important work is critical to our community’s recovery.”
Using a computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone, anyone can make a quick and easy donation to support their favorite organization or cause by visiting www.solagivingday.org. Donors can search for organizations by name, location or cause. Donations are 100% tax deductible and go directly to the nonprofits donors choose.
