More than $3.5 million was raised for 575 New Hampshire nonprofits through NH Gives, an online giving event created by the NH Center for Nonprofits.

Over 13,000 individuals contributed the money during the 24-hour event, which ran from 5 p.m. on June 7 to 5 p.m., June 8.

“It is just so wonderful to see this kind of generosity being sustained in New Hampshire,” said Kathleen Reardon, CEO of the Center. “Nonprofits are doing heroic work, rising to meet the needs of our communities. People from every corner of our state stepped up to support their vital work. Thank you so much to every single person who gave.”

Reardon said the event has raised more than $12 million for 1,000 New Hampshire nonprofits since it was created in 2016. Since the beginning of the pandemic, people in New Hampshire have responded generously to meet increased needs. In the last three years alone, NH Gives has raised more than $10 million for New Hampshire nonprofits.

More than $1.4 million in bonus pool and matching funds helped to spur donations this year: The NH Charitable Foundation and its donors contributed $240,000 in bonus pool funds, and people from around the state contributed more than $1.2 million in additional matching funds for individual organizations. The Charitable Foundation has been the lead sponsor of NH Gives since 2016. NH Business Review is among the media sponsors of NH Gives.
