ROCHESTER — The Fulton County Community Foundation has launched its annual Giving Tuesday campaign leading up to the Tuesday, Nov. 28 event.

Thanks to a matching opportunity offered through Lilly Endowment Inc., all gifts to the community funds will be matched $2 for every $1 donated. That means a $100 gift would garner a $200 match and result in total contribution of $300.

Additionally, there is a $1 for $1 match opportunity for up to $10,000 for the Fulton County Parks Department and $15,000 for The Outlet Youth Center.

Giving Tuesday is an international day of celebration for local and global nonprofits, which work year round serving its communities.

This year’s celebration will be from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the foundation’s office, located at 227 E. Ninth St., Rochester. Lunch will be served from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Learn more at nicf.org or call (574) 223-2227.
